Confirmed from Sullivan 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.
City park featuring basketball courts, a playset area and picnic spots.
What runners say about Sullivan Park
“It was clean and offered a safe environment for the kids.”
This park is part of the Greenway. It's got awesome play stations for kids, and you can walk from park to park. There is even go to the dog park for Fiddo! Historic 7th in downtown Hendersonville is a good side trip with funky shops and fun restaurants too
Nice clean and safe. Playground, covered and lighted basketball courts, pavilion, tables and grills. Also gives bike or walking access to Jackson, Patton and Berkley parks in 2.5 miles or less. All parks have a little different theme.
The park is nice and the weather was perfect for a nice day at the park. There is a lot of space to move around and a great walking path nearby!
Trail conditions & character
