When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

There's a wooden viewing tower up on the hill from where you'll see the typical Estonian landscape: flat and covered with forest/fields. Have some small cash with you as there's (surprisingly) a ticket - but it's small, 1€ max I think. There's also camping and picnic site and you can buy some souvenirs(?). The tower has a spiral staircase so be prepared in case you get easily dizzy - the tower also "swings" in the wind.
