Best Stroll(er)able Paths in Salem Oregon

Are you a new mom in the Salem area? I have compiled a list of regular stroller friendly walking paths in the Salem area along with how mom-friendly the paths are. 

Minto-Brown Park 

Length: miles of paths

Path quality: not all paths are paved so pay attention to maps and area is prone to flooding

Highlights: ponds, rivers, connects to Riverfront Park

Sketchiness: Not so bad because the Park has volunteer safety patrol bicyclists and the park is pretty busy

Bush’s Pasture Park 
Length: good length, nice hills for harder workout

Path quality: not all paths are paved

Highlights: playgrounds, easy parking most of the time, easy access to a Starbucks

Sketchiness: not too bad. Some transients in area but seem to keep to themselves. Park is pretty busy with runners.

Riverfront Park 
Length: now connects to Minto-Brown so it can be long if you want

Path quality: great paved paths!

Highlights: playgrounds, carousel, water fountain, new pedestrian bridge

Sketchiness: least sketchy park in Salem


Wallace Marine Park 
Length: This varies, it is best to park there and cross the bride and walk to the Riverfront Park

Path quality: paved, good

Highlights: Crossing over the pedestrian bridge

Sketchiness: Mildly sketchy. A lot of transients in this area. Park your car at your own risk.
