I was looking for a change and needed to find out how fit I was, so I selected this hill. What a bad choice I made. The first section and top section were ok but the middle section through a planted area where the grass was tall waist and chest hight but fallen over obscuring the ground so it was impossible to see all the uneven ground. It made this part of the walk hell on earth on the way up and the way down. No view at the top due to cloud cover. Nothing would entice me to walk up this hill again.
