A Breath of Fresh Air
As you ascend the gentle slopes, you’ll be greeted by rolling hills blanketed in emerald green. The air is crisp, the trails are inviting, and the views? Absolutely breathtaking. From the summit, the city sprawls below like a shimmering mosaic, especially magical at sunrise or sunset.
