A group of hikers can be seen making their way back down from the summit of Mindego Hill late in the day. The view is popular, so you probably won't be the only one at the summit.
Numerous hills surround Mindego Hill. The hills are green in the winter, thanks to the rain storms that blow through.

The trail follows an old farm road that mother nature is slowly reclaiming. You may be walking on dirt, grass, gravel, or cement at various moments in the hike.
Cattle can be seen feeding in the area. Caution should be used when encountering them, especially when calves are around.
POST Council Circle at the end of the trail. It's a nice place to take in the views and enjoy a break before starting your trek back.
