Nice crushed rock trail around the park. It is a 1.2 mile loop (2k). Great for running. There are portable toilets every 1/4 of a mile, which is nice. Great green space for dogs! Trail absorbed water well from previous days and morning rains .
Read more about City of Hollister Municipal ParkLoved this little park it had shade and the floor was padded so my 1 yr old was able to roam around knowing he won't get hurt while learning to walk on his own and was able to crawl a bit to certain areas. Overall both my kids were able to have fun and enjoy it. They loved the swing the best♥️
