Boating competition “Let the best village win!”
It sometimes happened that people from the neighbouring village came over for the Midsummer’s Eve party. That meant endless telling of stories, dancing and merriment. Torches were lit and boats were taken to the lake – the play of lights reflecting on water were breathtaking to watch! And of course, the best and most skilful person in each village had to be determined – and that person could boast his achievements for the entire following year.

The boating competition will take place in large boats on Põlva Lake. After receiving instruction and putting on safety equipment, competitors will go on boats together with the men and women of “other villages”. You will then be one team and work together to beat the other boat teams.

By the way, doing a somersault in dew on Midsummer’s Eve is supposed to prevent back ailments. You can try it at Põlva Lake!
