The Penijõe hiking trail starts near the visitor centre of Matsalu National Park. The hiking trail’s main advantage is the ability to choose between routes of varying lengths. The length of the trail can be 3–7 km; you can choose.

For bird enthusiasts, the Penijõe hiking trail is the most exciting to visit in April and May. Here you can observe various beach meadows, reed beds and bird species associated with Matsalu Bay. Since many birds are quite secretive, it is worthwhile for the hiker to stop and listen from time to time. On the Penijõe hiking trail in spring, you can hear the call of a hidden reed bird and the winnowing sound of a common snipe.
