What a great experience it was to explore my home city in a new way! You learn so much about the history of Strawberry Hill settlement and the people who lived there. Highly recommend for anyone who loves to be outside and loves history. P.S arrive a little bit earlier if you’d like to sit and drink some coffee from Splitlog or you can pick it up after the hike is over!
