For hiking, we really recommend the South Mountain Park, which is the biggest municipal park in the United States. If you are up for a bit of a challenge, try the Mormon trail to the Hidden Valley for the views. The Mystery Castle at the foothills of South Mountain is also an interesting visit, but guided tours are closed for the summer.
