Go horseback riding in a natural setting.

“One of the most frequent questions I get when I share that I ride long distances on horseback is “What’s the big deal? Aren’t you just sitting there while the horse does all the work?” A fair enough question, if you haven't spent seventeen consecutive hours in the saddle- yes, I’ve done this, and my entire body felt like Jello the day after. Not only does riding a horse properly engage just about every muscle in your core and legs, being responsible for equines on trail is also a massive mental workout. When I have my horses with me, my risk calculation has to be way more accurate than when I’m alone, because I’m a lot more willing to put myself into sketchy situations than I am to risk their welfare.”

“i was terrified at first and very vigilant of the horses' behavior because i kept hearing huffs from the horses around me. my number one concern was getting kicked or bit. [...] throughout the entire ride, Trigger would stop the most. either to interact with other horses, eat from the bushes, or drink from the muddy puddles. my brothers, who were just as inexperienced as i was, had no trouble maneuvering their horses, what was i doing wrong? do horses really not feel it when kicked that hard? how hard should i be pulling on the rope to move the horse right or left? overall, i had a nice experience and, when I got off him, Trigger came towards me and lowered his head at me (which i assumed was an invitation for me to pet him) and i touches his head. he was a very beautiful animal”
