Confirmed from Holly Hills Nature Preserve'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.

What runners say about Holly Hills Nature Preserve

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (4 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

Fun, easy, quiet, hiking path. Pretty well hidden and not too well known so it’s never busy here. Recommend hiking boots since a lot of parts of the trail are sand and can get in ur sneakers while walking.

The practical stuff
