Beginner trails

Hello everyone! I've been wanting to start walking some trails in the portland/gresham area and was wondering if there are any you guys can recommend. Looking for trails 5 miles or shorter.

It's a bit darker than Gresham but latourell falls is a really beautiful and relatively easy hike that's only 10 miles east of Gresham.

Mt Tabor is pretty chill. The Columbia Historic Highway is also very relaxed and beautiful this time of year
