Confirmed from Jordan 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.
33.5-acre city park hosts the International Peace Gardens, plus sports fields, a playground & more.
What runners say about Jordan Park
“Great trails for new bike riders, also the peace gardens are right here and they are beautiful!”
“And enjoy the quiet walk through the peace gardens.”
I highly recommend the international peace gardens. They were beautiful and peaceful. There’s a connection to the Jordan River Trail and I recommend starting a bike ride here!
A nifty place to visit however would probably be better in the spring or summer. Many botanical gardens connected with a theme of showing you about the world. Lots of benches to rest although the park is not too large connected to the Jordan River trail so you can detour out and explore as well.
If you go make sure to bring sun flowers seeds for the squirrels. They literally come right up to you. And enjoy the quiet walk through the peace gardens.
We had my sons 2nd birthday party here. It was great. Love this park so much. Great trails for new bike riders, also the peace gardens are right here and they are beautiful! We really do love this park so much
