Originally a
Winter Colony of international sporting enthusiasts, Aiken is now one of
the country's most important equestrian centers with facilities for
trail riding, fox hunting, polo and year-round training of race horses
and sport horses of all disciplines. The largest urban forest in the
country, Aiken's Hitchcock Woods, is at the heart of the village, its

shopping and dining, cultural activities, a regional medical center and
