Looking to get out and enjoy that beautiful weather? Check out these local parks that are some of our favorite places to find stroller paths in Fargo and Moorhead!
Island Park is a great area in downtown Fargo with paved paths among huge trees. We have strolled in this park many times while taking the kids to play on the playground.
There is always so much to see at this park with people playing on the basketball and tennis courts while enjoying the outdoors.
This park is located right next to SCHEELS Arena. It has great trails to go walk with your stroller on and three shelter areas in case you need a break from the hot sun. Two great playgrounds are here for your older kids too! The Garden of Healing is located within this park and is a great place to watch butterflies among the rows of wildflowers.
Timber Creek Park to Silver Leaf Park
Address: 3300 47th Avenue S to 5755 27th Street S, Fargo
There is a great trail that runs on the north and south side of 52nd Avenue. You can start at Silverleaf Park (5755 27th St S) and walk north along the trail all the way to Timber Creek Park (330 47th Ave S). Both parks have playgrounds if you want a play break before turning around!
Rendezvous Park is a wonderful place to get out and explore on your stroller walk. There are great walking paths throughout the entire park! There is once again, a great playground for older kids to burn off some of that extra energy. My favorite place to walk is the path by the pond–it is relaxing!
This park has beautiful, paved paths that are along the Red River. It is a great location to take your stroller walk and go soak in the outdoors. It has two playgrounds (one that is an adaptive playground for people of all abilities). It even has a pedestrian bridge that connects to Gooseberry Mound Park in Moorhead to get some extra steps in.
Located in the south part of Moorhead, this park offers great walking trails and playgrounds for the whole family. This place very peaceful and a great place to relax.
This is one of my family’s favorite places. They have great paved walking paths that are close to the banks of the Red River. My kids love all of the nature and wildlife you can see on these paths. Tip: If you have older kids, you can do a nature scavenger hunt as you stroll along the paths!
This park is nestled close to the Red River with great walking paths. This park reminds me of Orchard Glen with all of the trees and nature. In 2021, Moorhead planted over 100 fruit trees in this park (it will take a few more years to yield fruit), but how amazing will this be once you can walk among the fruit trees and bushes.

Elmwood Parks are great places to get out and go for a quiet stroller walk. North Elmwood has a great zipline if you have any older kids tagging along for your walk. South Elmwood has great double sidewalk (bike/hiking path) that makes it easier if you are passing people on the walk. There is also a playground in South Elmwood and a lot of baseball fields if your older kids still need to burn off some energy while on your walk.
