Private quarry safaris in Aidu quarry
AN UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE FOR YOUR GROUP
We climb into powerful off-road vehicles and head where ordinary roads end. We drive straight into the wild man-made landscape, through ditches and forest tracks, to test ourselves and the machines where giant mining excavators once roared. Every metre of Aidu's former quarry roads delivers a genuine off-road thrill and shakes you out of your routine.
What makes a quarry safari in the Aidu landscape special?
Calm light blue water
Speed and adrenaline
Stunning views
Adrenaator quarry safari
is a guided experience tour in the former Aidu oil shale quarry in Ida-Virumaa. We drive specially adapted powerful off-road vehicles over steep man-made terrain, pass narrow canals and discover hidden places that tell the powerful story of Estonia's heavy industry.
This adventure is not just a drive but a direct and emotional experience in the middle of unique nature and mystical light blue water. During the tour we visit the most exciting places in the area, including Sipelgamägi hill and the famous Aidu canals, where, if you wish, the experience can be combined with our boat tour.
