Confirmed from Eagle Rim 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.
Amenities at this 12-acre site include a trail system, picnic shelters, a skate park & a playground.
What runners say about Eagle Rim Park
“Watched 4July fireworks here so we didn't see it during the day but it is a pretty park, dog-friendly and clean, so we'll go again in day hours.”
“There is also a beautiful high bridge across the river to the Las Colinas area.”
Colorado River biking and hiking trail starts here. Restrooms, water fountain, picnic area and playground equipment surrounded by grass and trees. Overlook as the Colorado River with statue dedicated to women and the daughters of the American revolution.
It’s been a very long time since my visit back home and to discover this gem is amazing! I would love to have my daily walks here.
Beautiful park. Great little walk down to the bridge. You can cross and take a trail to the river side.
One of the best parks in Grand Junction. Always green and clean. The best views of the Grand Valley. Has a great playground and probably the biggest skate park in town. Two picnic pavilions and a sidewalk trail that circles the park and leads across the river below to Los Colonias park. It's a hidden gem
