Confirmed from Big Hollow Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.

What runners say about Big Hollow Park

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (87 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

🌳 shaded & cool 4 mentions

“The playground here is kind of small, but the lawns are decently sized with mature trees for shade.”

👟 good for all levels 3 mentions

“Playgrounds for all ages with a walking path around it that is almost exactly 1/4 of a mile.”

Nice park with small play equipment for kids and a nice paved walkway around the park which is good for walking or running. Medium-sized pavilion with tables and a barbecue grill for family or group events. A local favorite for sledding in the winter.

★★★★★ — Derek , Jun 2018

Its great! It's a perfect place to go sledding, theres a "trail" for a bike, swings, and two playgrounds. One for older kids and another for smaller kids. And theres also a nice, big field, perfict for soccer practice😀

★★★★★ — Alicia , Dec 2017

A hidden gem! Playgrounds for all ages with a walking path around it that is almost exactly 1/4 of a mile. Plus, great sledding hill in the winter.

★★★★☆ — Emily , Sep 2018

Great sledding in the winter! Good variety of big/steep hills & small hills for all ages of kids. Can be pretty crowded at times.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.

⛰️ Hills / elevation 11 mentions

“We love the hill in this park and go sledding here in the winter and kite flying in the summer”
