Hey!  I would love to try hiking.  Do you hike?
1_Wizard
Yeah, I love taking long, vigorous walks on trails, it really helps me relax and it's great exercise.

Do you need any special gear to do it?
1_Wizard
Maybe for extended hikes, but I usually just do regular day hikes so I don't need much beside food and water.

Where should I hike since I am a novice?
1_Wizard
It depends what's available to you, but I'd try to start with a simple, established footpath and then expand from there.

That is a good idea.  I guess I can look up some parks to hike at.  Is there anything else I should keep in mind?

Just make sure to bring plenty of water and food and watch where you walk so you don't sprain an ankle.
