Confirmed from General Holm 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.
Small park featuring picnic areas, paved trails, and a public restroom.
What runners say about General Holm Park
“It was clean and it felt safe.”
“On a hot day you're going to enjoy cooler temperatures from the Shaded sidewalk and cooler temperatures from being next to the water.”
Hit the paved trail for some long boarding! The park was a bit challenging to discover from the main 40-41 S. But plenty of parking early morning Saturday. Good time with the dog's and the Ecological education along the way was sweet. I'm inspired by the good stewardship alongside the river.
This is a nice park that is right next to the Jordan River Trail. The pavilion provides plenty of shade for picnics and get togethers. There isn't a giant field or playing soccer but there is enough space to play a backyard games.The restrooms are ok and have flushing toilets.
Nice park. Small. But nice picnic areas. Access to Jordan parkway trails. Covered Pavilion. And lots of nice grassy areas for you, the kids and your dogs. :)
This is a great little park! There are beautiful trails to walk along side the river.💞
