We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Holliday 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 featuring a hiking trail, which is popular for morning deer sightings.
What runners say about Holliday Park
“Area seems clean, quiet and well kept.”
“Beautiful day for a walk, pretty nice trails to walk the puppers (people just need to keep their dogs on a leash).”
A beautiful park that I hate to say is becoming less beautiful over time. The amount of graffiti has increased significantly throughout the preserve with a lot of it painted directly onto trees. The wooden posts put in along the trail have become a magnet to anyone with a pen or marker.
It’s a little “forest” in the middle of the city. we saw at least 20 deer in one walk. Also many squirrels and birds roam the park.
Nice place for a walk as long as the mad mountain biker doesn't run you down. It is a great place to see nature and get some exercise. .I think the bikers should go somewhere else though. They scare away all of the wildlife and some will run you over if you don't jump out of their path.
Was there a a few months ago. There were alot of trees down on the paths due to wintet storms. They have all been cut up and the paths are clear. It appears there were or are going to be signs for the paths but there are none at this time. No indication where the paths will take you.

“Also I wish selfish people would quit bringing unleashed dogs out on the trail as if the rules don't apply to them.”
