Navigating landscapes that are varied, that offer trials and occasional conflicts
Navigating landscapes that are varied, that offer trials and occasional conflicts is more helpful to creativity than hanging out in landscapes that pose no challenge to our senses and our minds.
This is the sentence taken from one text book and I know that that are varied and that offer trials and occasional conflicts modify landscapes and then I was wondering if we can use a comma that way or there should be and like ...varied, and that offer...and the and is omitted like ...varied, (and) that offer...?
What do you native English speakers think? Thank you so much as usual in advance.
