  "summary": "Medina’s walking trails are gaining popularity as the city’s weather becomes milder, attracting both residents and visitors seeking healthier lifestyles and recreational activities. The city boasts a diverse array of trails, including the Hijrah Trail, Aws bin Malik Trail, Al-Aqiq Trail, and Qasr Urwah Trail, among others, each offering unique walking, jogging, and leisure opportunities. These trails are designed with pedestrian paths, green spaces, seating areas, and lighting, often connected to parks and public facilities, making them accessible destinations for people of all ages. The Al-Qaswa Walkway, for instance, features a one-kilometer walking path, an 870-meter cycling track, and a children’s play area, contributing to the city’s efforts to humanize urban spaces and enhance quality of life in line with Saudi Vision 2030.",
