Visitors rave about Sullivan Virgin River Soccer Park's scenic paved trails, diverse wildlife, and well-maintained sports facilities. It's a beloved spot for family outings, nature observation, and active recreation, though summer heat can be a consideration.
"Great Park with some very scenic paved trails. You can play pickel ball, soccer or have a picnic. Also some nice fishing at the bond. Just a great place to have fun with the whole family. If you head on the trail with your dogs, the city provides a few bag stations on different spots of the trail. Please pick up behind your dog, so everybody can enjoy there walk or ride."

"This is one of my favorite parks to visit because it has a miles-long bike path where I see birds. I saw a Cooper's hawk near the pond today.
The western trail is shorter but weaves through pastures with good tree canopy. 3 weeks ago I saw a great horned owl sleeping in a tree. Today I walked the eastern trail that follows the Virgin River through a pretty deep gorge. The photos show this trail with homes topping the gorge. It ends at a residential area. This trail gets more traffic than the western side, which ends near the industrial park by Costco."

"The pond has turtles, fish and ducks. Canadian geese hang out as well. The soccer fields are nice and the parking is ok. There is a splash pad and playground along with a few pickleball courts. The Virgin River Trails run through it that can take you all over town."
