I like to do a lot of walking in the area, and there is no shortage of places to walk around Raleigh and the Holly Springs area. Veteran’s Park is a small park located in a Holly Springs residential area.

The park is not far from downtown Holly Springs, and it is easy to get to.

This park is also not far from Jones park, and the Greenways connect Veterans park to Jones Park and other neighborhoods.

You can find a full, interactive Holly Springs Trails & Greenways Map online.

There was a decent size parking lot, and you could probably park long the road if you needed to.

The park consists of a playground, lake, exercise equipment, and a trail around the lake.

My kids would have loved these playgrounds when they were younger!

The trail around the lake is very short, but it is wide and paved, so it is nice to walk with friends or take the kids in strollers. It also has a short greenway piece out to the neighborhood for a little extra walking.

The lake is a nice attraction. It has a dock for fishing, and there were lots of geese and ducks around the lake.

There is an exercise area along one part of the path, which has some neat exercises.

I enjoyed walking on the path around the lake. This would have been so nice when the kids were younger – I could have pushed them in the stroller or it would be great for a short, easy walk.

Overall, this was a nice, quiet place to get outdoors. I did a couple laps and enjoyed the scenic pond.
