Tucked away in South Salem, Salem Woods is a peaceful haven where you and your pup can enjoy a quiet walk beneath a canopy of trees. The winding trails, soft underfoot and rich with the scent of leaves and pine, offer a perfect escape into nature—without ever leaving the city.
With multiple entry points (like Marlborough Road and Willson Street), it’s easy to slip into this forested retreat for a stroll, a sniff, and a moment of calm. Whether you’re walking off morning coffee or winding down the day, Salem Woods is a favorite among local dog walkers—and it’s easy to see why. To keep everyone safe and ensure Salem Woods remains dog-friendly, dogs must be kept on leash at all times. It helps protect wildlife, other visitors, and your dog, too!
