In the middle of the city of Aiken, SC lies a beautiful 2000 acre urban forest. It is a delightful pine and hardwood forest with many trails perfect for horseback riding or hiking. Dogs are welcome also. During the hunt season, hunt clubs ride every Saturday. Hitchcock Woods is a blessing to Aiken!

5 stars is just not enough to rate for Rebel Ranch Horse Tours. Today, Jessica was our guide. She was very outgoing, friendly, knowledgeable and just an absolute pleasure to be around and talk with. We enjoyed her company just as much as the horse ride. I surprised my wife with a two hour tour with them for a Christmas gift. We both enjoyed it immensely and we will be back! Very relaxing, and peaceful, it was an absolute joy to just get out and breathe some fresh air in some great company. We started this outing as complete strangers and left as friends. I hope your business continues to strive. The world could use a few more people like you! Stay safe and many blessings to you and your family! Thanks again for everything!

This was a great activity during this time of social distancing. The bikes were disinfected in front of us. We were shown how to use the bikes - all of our questions were answered. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and eager to share that knowledge to give you the best possible biking experience. We live in an area with LOTS of hills so, YES, these bikes made our outing fun, relaxing and only as strenuous as each of us might have wanted to make it.
8. Savannah River Site Museum

We had a great time at the Museum, We were met with a very information and well versed staff person, I believer her name was Teresa. The museum is small but packed with timelines, items from the sites and community history. Examples of radiation, fallout shelter and pictures. This is well worth the time and if you have ever been curious about the site, it answers questions. The museum has limited hours as it closed at 2pm on the day we visited so check the web site. Parking is easy and free on the street. We parked in from of the museum with no problem at all. The entrance is free but they have a donation box. Check it out.
