Tile glare, caravel light, seven hills.

Move at the pace your breath still writes sentences in.

Accessibility · Mostly accessible

Continuous paths with occasional short ramps or gentle slopes. Sturdy strollers and most wheelchairs manage well; a companion is a kindness on the two or three brief rises.

Trade cadence for breath on the climbs. Descend soft-footed, not fast.

Accessibility · Trail-only

Genuine trail — roots, elevation, occasional narrow sections. Walk this with sturdy footwear; not a wheelchair or stroller route.

  • BenchesLog benches at overlooks and trail junctions
  • ToiletsPublic toilets at 2–3 points along the route · park pavilions and transit hubs
  • ShadeDeep tree cover for most of the line
  • Rest pointsOverlook rocks and grass clearings at 2–3 km intervals
Why this route restores

Because green is the frequency the nervous system was tuned for. Every kilometre here is a small argument against the week you just had.
