Tallinn builds pump track for youth under Pärnu Highway viaduct

A new pump track is being constructed under a viaduct on Pärnu Highway in central Tallinn. The location offers natural shelter from rain, making it an all-weather destination for young extreme sports enthusiasts.

Tallinn is getting a new outdoor sports facility aimed at young people: a pump track is being built under the viaduct on Pärnu Highway in the city centre. The covered location means riders will be able to use the track regardless of weather conditions.

A pump track is a circuit of rollers, berms, and small jumps designed to be ridden by generating momentum through body movement — pumping — rather than pedalling. The format is popular among cyclists, skateboarders, and scooter riders alike.

The viaduct location was chosen in part because the structure provides natural overhead cover, shielding the track from rain. This makes the facility particularly practical in Estonia's often wet climate, extending the usable season compared to open-air alternatives.
