We had an amazing experience walking up the hills. The views were beautiful, and it took us about an hour to reach the Beacon and walk back to the car. Definitely worth the visit!

A great walk up a hill! My thighs were hurting the next day and it was definitely worth all the effort! I suggest taking a jacket as when you get to the top. It is extremely cold!
