Confirmed from Grandpa's Pond 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.

“Lovely park that’s backed by beautiful red rocks and includes a disc golf course.”

Nice park! They’ve got a nice trail going around the water. Plenty of tables. Two pavilions. Bathrooms. Fishing. And frisbee golf! In the spring time, you can see pelicans take a little break in the pond as theyhead north to the great Salt Lake. Great place for birdwatching!

★★★★★ — Steve , Mar 2020

Nice park with a paved walking or biking trail around the pond. Good place to enjoy ducks and other bird watching. Park has a grassy area with covered picnic areas, playground and frisbee golf.

★★★★★ — Linda , Jan 2020

Very fun park with a beautiful pond. Fun to fish and play. There is a pavilion with tables and a walking path. It does get very hot during the day in the summer.

★★★★★ — Levi , May 2026

Great park and pond. The Disc Golf course was good and challenging although one Disc made a sacrifice to the pond! 😅 Nice place to run or bring kids too.

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.
