Confirmed from Horse Heaven Hills 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.
A 20-acre park with softball fields, tennis courts, soccer fields, paths, picnic areas & playground.
What runners say about Horse Heaven Hills Park
“1) it’s well maintained by Kennewick as well as the people who enjoy the park.”
“2) it’s a dog lover’s dream (complete with dog waste bags and lots of garbage bags).”
By far one of the coolest parks in the tri. Very big with plenty of shade and benches.
Very beautiful park, although my grandson had his T Ball practice there, and we were running into a lot of dog poop. So maybe they could add doggie bags and garbage that might help with that.
We stopped here to walk the dogs it was very clean and well kept but it's right on the main road so if you have dogs that are not fully trained or like to let off the leash and run free this might not be a good fit because of traffic. I hope this helps. have a great day
Nice park for a walk, playing soccer, baseball, or letting the kids play on the jungle gym. Lots of wide open spaces, and trees here and there for shade. My only issue is with the trail. It gets pretty rough in some spots.
