About the closest free, real hiking is the Laveen access to South Mountain about a 40min drive

Estrella Regional Mountain Park has a number of very mild trails, of varying lengths, that you can get acclimated on. (See Joe's link, above, or http://www.maricopa.gov/parks/estrella/ )

I took the Laveen access to s. Mtn. It was an excellent hike today! Thank you!
