We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Gary Grant Park yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. 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.
Park sporting a playground and picnic tables, plus trails for running and walking.
What runners say about Gary Grant Park
Nice park. Clean and tidy restrooms. Limited parking. Kids play area is fine, the slide is little risky for kids though. There is sheltered picnic tables. Park has easy access to Soos Trail. About 1.25M of trail on either side of the park. Overall loved the park.
Great Walks the beavers have screwed up one area you can walk put too and sit. Bit great playground and people just need to pick up after themselves or others. It's not a bring your garbage and leave it ever people. Be considerate of others
The Soos Creek trail is awesome, I love how you can start from so many places and most of the path is away from any roads. Love starting onewheel journeys here :)
Playground park but a great place to meet up for the trail walk. Do not leave anything in your car. Take even the registration and remotes with you.
