There are three marked trails, and you can choose a walk of 3.8 or 4.3 or 4.7 km. All the trails start on the Raadi hill on the edge of the Piirorg valley. The jewels of Paganamaa (Old Heathen’s Land) are the lakes in the Piirorg valley on the Piiroja stream: Kikkajärv, Sarapuujärv, Liivajärv and Mudajärv lakes. The Estonian-Latvian border runs along the medial line of these lakes. This area got its name according to the kettle holes, formed by the retreating glaciers – these kettles are known as the “footprints” of the Old Heathen. The diameter of the kettles is 50–100 m and depth 15–20 m. The slope angles are up to 25 degrees. It is said that in the old days the surroundings of these “footprints” were treeless and the oblong hollows reminded people of huge footprints.
