Hear it in real life

Not at all - the path twists and turns around the hills.

The mistake everyone makes
Not: The road twists and turns up to the mountain.
Say: The road twists and turns all the way up the mountain.
Use "up the mountain" or "up to the top of the mountain" for the destination, not just "up to the mountain."
