Holloway Park provide unique opportunities for cross-country race events due to it's changes on elevation and partially covered trails. Explore any of the trails below.
Tent City (5 acres) and the start line viewing area are located adjacent and east of the start line.
All of the cross country trails at Holloway Park have a wide (over 300') start line and run gently uphill along a high ridge for approximately 1700'. All of the trails are mowed and maintained for a width of 15'. At about the 3/4 mile mark you will notice a tree lined spectator ridge on the left side of the trail that is parallel to the trail. The trail continues on until the 1 mile marker and turns right and runs along the south portion of another spectator ridge. At about the 1.5 mile marker the 3K trail makes a gentle “U” turn and you find yourself on the home stretch on the north side of the tree lined spectator ridge headed toward the finish line. All of the cross country trails at Holloway Park use this shady return trail to the finish line in full view of all the spectators.
