The Seljamäe area is a former farm-and-village hybrid, where farmland reforested over the course of the 20th century. The trail passes places where old stone fences and cellar sites are still visible beneath the forest cover.

The Seljamäe Nature Trail is a quiet loop on the edge of the forests of Lääne-Viru County. The trail alternates between mixed forest and swamp forest, introducing a variety of forest communities.
