The Edgewater Trail leaves from Water Street at the north end of Riverfront Park. The 23-acre park is a beautiful place to spend an afternoon and enjoy river views. It has two unique features: a carousel with dozens of hand-carved and hand-painted wooden horses, and the Eco Earth Globe, created by local artists and students.
Ride the ascending ramp and cross the Willamette River on the Center Street Bridge. On the other side, the trail follows the bank of the river between Edgewater Street and Dallas Highway.
Parking for the Edgewater Trail is available in Riverfront Park, 200 Water Street NE (Salem).
Please see TrailLink Map for detailed directions.
A railroad bridge, converted to a pedestrian and bike bridge, connect Riverfront Park, on the east side of the Willamette River to Wallace Marine Park on the west side.
Thanks to the bridge, the paved trails that wind through Riverfront Park connect to the trails and softball fields of Wallace Marine Park, and on to the streets of West Salem.
This trail's well-maintained, paved trails, and riverside location make it a popular destination.
