Hiking is a great way to see the world, get exercise, and reconnect with nature.
A day hike is the best way to go in my opinion. Only takes a day! 
What are the best trails near where you live?
Our trails aren't very exciting in my opinion. I would like to hike the Oregon trail though. Do you know much about that? It's pretty historical. 
I have never done more than a day hike out West. I have done 5-6 day section hikes on the Appalachian Trail, though. They were amazing.
Appalachian Trail
The Appalachian National Scenic Trail, generally known as the Appalachian Trail or simply the A.T., is a marked hiking trail in the Eastern United States extending between Springer Mountain in Georgia and Mount Katahdin in Maine. The trail is about long, though the exact length changes over time as parts are modified or rerouted. The Appalachian Trail Conservancy describes the Appalachian Trail as the longest hiking-only trail in the world. More than 2 million people are said to take a hike on part of the trail at least once

Hiking.
Many backcountry hiking and backpacking trails start in or near Tuolumne Meadows. The John Muir Trail and the Pacific Crest Trails are long-distance backpacking trails that go through Lyell Canyon into Tuolumne Meadows. Tuolumne Meadows also feature a wide range of day trails. Day hike trails are popular, and get busy in the summer high season.
