A group of hikers walks up a paved trail through a lush, green landscape under a blue sky with clouds. A banner reads "The Cleveland Hike" with "Run, walk or jog - Your race, your way." Event dates "24th & 25th June 2023" are shown at the bottom right. A group of five people stand next to a large stone monument in a grassy, open landscape with a road and a car in the background. Three men wear casual outdoor clothing, while one man is in a rain jacket and another in a cap. The sky is overcast. Three people are running on a rural road that curves to the right. There are two road signs indicating a steep 22% incline and the presence of sheep. Lush green fields, trees, and houses with red roofs are in the background under a partly cloudy sky. A group of hikers, dressed in blue shirts with backpacks, walk and jog along a country road surrounded by greenery. Several cars are parked in the background, and the hikers appear to be enjoying a sunny day outdoors. Three people are hiking through tall grass under a cloudy sky. They each carry large backpacks and appear to be navigating with a map. The landscape around them is open and covered with dense grass. Three people are running through a shallow creek, creating splashes as they go. They appear to be participating in a race, with red and white tape marking the course on either side. The surrounding area is lush with greenery, and a stone bridge is seen in the background. Four men are standing together in a grassy area outdoors, smiling at the camera. One man, wearing a decorated vest, has his hand on the shoulder of another man who is holding a trophy and a certificate. Two other men are standing on either side. Trees and a stone wall are in the background. Three men in blue t-shirts and caps are working together on an outdoor project involving ropes and wooden stakes. They are standing on a grassy slope with trees in the background, appearing focused on their task. The weather is sunny and clear. A group of people are gathered on a grassy field with several colorful tents set up around them. They appear to be engaged in various camp activities: setting up tents, organizing gear, and conversing. Trees and a cloudy sky are in the background. Three hikers with backpacks walk uphill on a paved road through a green landscape under a blue sky with white clouds. The terrain is hilly and expansive, with fields and hills in the background.
