EVENT CENTRE

TERRAIN AND MAP: 1:10000 h=2,5

Terrain description of Mõndavere. 90% of the landscape is covered with forest, dominated mostly by coniferous forest with underwood of different ages. There are also old meadows covered with high grass and a few trees. Mostly average runnability. The terrain partially includes also dense underwood areas and wind-fallen trees. Eastern part of the terrain is crossed by northwest-southeast directional max 17m high slopes which make the runnability hard due to fallen trees. On the western side of the slopes there is a flatter hilly landscape with hight differences up to 10m structured with bigger swamp and bog areas and the runnability here is better than around the slopes. There are several paths, rides in the forest have a lot of undergrowth and are difficult to notice.

On the map the stone-piles are marked with the symbol 112 (small knoll). These are piles covered with soil and moss which look like small knolls from the distance.
