Address:

Also known as the Matkule hillfort, this was probably once an important political and economic centre for the ancient Vanema land. Population began in the Bronze Age and continued until the 14th century. This is a lovely hillock which is some 200 m long and 27 m high. The surrounding area is neat, and the hillfort offers a breath-taking view of the Imula River valley. This is one of the most beautiful places in the Ancient Abava Valley nature park. It has received two flags attesting to the culture and history of Europe.
