A parking area is available on Friedenfels Road off US Route 1 in Salisbury.
The description of this trail is apt. It is a really good connector between the Clipper City and Marsh trails and the art makes for an excellent touch. Great views of the Harbor. You should be aware that the sidewalk over the bridge to get to this point is just that -- a sidewalk. It is is fine shape but it is not very wide and is not separated from traffic except by the curb. There is a sign that says to walk your bike over the bridge although most I observed were riding. I went over it with my toddler in a bike trailer and it was fine but I probably would not feel too comfortable taking children over it on their own bikes or feet.
As we crossed the river from Newburyport and continued on the connector to the Marsh Trail, I was delighted to find the art work hanging under the bridge. What a classy way to enter Salisbury.
