On the way there, I asked our tour guide if it was possible to hike in the hills themselves. I thought it must be. It’s a big area and the locals must traverse the hills all the time forming a trail.
He said something like, not really, but some ride their ATVs. I was a little shocked by this because ATVs might ruin the hills’ perfect mounds.
Then I realized also that what he meant by “not really” was more like, not generally advised. Because of the hot climate, hiking is probably not a leisure activity among the locals. Instead, theywalk long distances through hills, forests, and whatnot out of necessity.
