The local-in-time hydrodynamic limit of the relativistic Boltzmann equation using a Hilbert expansion is under consideration. The existence of local solutions to the relativistic Boltzmann equation is proved as they are nearby the local relativistic Maxwellians. The last ones are constructed from a class of solutions to the relativstic Euler equations. This class includes a large subclass of near-constant, non-vacuum fluid states. For small Knudsen number, these solutions to the relativistic Boltzmann equation have dyamics that are effectively captured by corresponding solutions to the relativistic Euler equations.
