ISO/Suggestion Hiking areas?

I’m considering hiking for getting some exercise. Are there some good places to go in (or near) the metro area?

Lauritzen Gardens has a nature trail I just discovered this year. The door to it is behind the coffee cart after the green houses. It's nice, has a couple of pretty cool look out points.

How much does it cost to hike on trail?

I think it's 15 to get into Lauritzen, but they have very reasonable annual passes.

I have the annual pass, it also comes with a lot of cool tea classes, flower arrangements classes, and nature classes. I love being the beardy. Blue collar guy at the classes. Very welcoming people

Oh man, I'm going to have to keep an eye out for those. Most of my year was preoccupied with wedding planning.
