I love to "scramble" across country, and versus street running, I would say the difference is somewhat like the difference between lifting free weights versus lifting on machines, IE more whole-body involvement with balancing muscles, etc. and more tactile feedback. The immersion in nature also makes it a spiritual-type experience, in my opinion. Enjoy!
