Confirmed from Timpanogos Cove 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.
Quiet, hilly park featuring a playground and swings for kids, plus views of the valley and mountains.
What runners say about Timpanogos Cove Park
“Timpanogos Cove Park has a great view, during winter their small slope is lovely for children to slide down, it has picnic tables for a meal with your friends and family.”
“Very calm and has a great view of the whole valley.”
This is a medium size community park located above a subdivision on the east bench of Cedar Hills. The grass areas are sloped and there is also a large grass bowl area (amphitheatre style) so it's not ideal for a soccer field, but it's great for many other things, like snow sledding after it snows and we enjoy snow…
Awesome park. Super fun, my boys loved it. It was definitely a different design then other parks. The playground equipment goes up pretty high but my boys figured it out just fine. The main downside is the slides are super fast and they shoot off the end of the slide.
Really awesome park filled with great atractions. Very calm and has a great view of the whole valley. Is amazing at night and is a good romantic date spot on the bench at the top of the hill.
We love this park! Great views of the valley! A three tiered play structure on one side, swings and swing bars on another. Amphitheater shaped grass section with what appears to be electricity. Many individual tables under cover, one porch swing type swing under cover, a larger set of tables also.
