When a young lad together with my brothers and friends I used to hike on those hills very extensively, and there is probably very few places where we did not trsd, but this was the first time I had ever riden to the top. The ride was beautiful, and I would it to anyone, even tho;e who may be built completely wrong for horse riding like me.
