Whenever I'm in Exeter, I always take a walk in the park between bouts of shopping, eating, and drinking on Water Street (and in this case, before going to a youth hockey game at the Rinks of Exeter).

The Swasey Parkway is a roadway that runs along the Squamscott River from the end of the downtown area on Water Street near Stillwell’s Ice Cream to where the parkway ends and rejoins Water Street which turns north, parallels the park, and becomes Newfields Road just after the terminus of the parkway.
The parkway is a good place to take a short drive for some scenic views which I’ve done many times on numerous trips to Exeter.
There is a narrow park with a path that runs between the parkway and the river. It’s a great place to walk and get scenic views of the river, some marshy areas, and former historic mills that have been repurposed.
Across the river, one can get a glimpse of the historic 1771 Powder House where a number of barrels of gunpowder were stored and used at the Battle of Bunker Hill.
On this visit, I covered the full length of the path.
There were several benches along the way.
At the north end, there is a large boulder with a plaque that states that this area was a gift from Ambrose Swasey in 1931. There is also a memorial stone for Robert M. Swasey that was donated by Star in the East Lodge #59.
Overall, the park's path is a very easy walk on a level ground.
For its scenic views from the roadway, plus flat terrain and accessibility for all levels of walkers on the path in the park, I rate the Swasey Parkway at 4.50.
The reason for the delay in submitting this review was due to a months-long loss of my ability to post photos with my reviews and some health issues.

It's a lovely place for a walk along the river, but despite plenty of open green space, dogs are prohibited. I just don't see the logic of that, given it's supposed to be a family friendly area.

We walk through the park frequently. It's quiet and well kept. We went recently to the Exeter brew fest which was very good. The park is a good venue for events.

Whenever I'm in Exeter, I take a walk here because it's so inviting and tranquil (and soon to be more tranquil because cars won't be allowed to drive through like they do now). The views of the river, marsh, and townscape are nice, and there are several shade trees and benches.

Very pretty pedestrian path along the water with plenty of park benches, trees, grass, and a gazebo. A good 1/2 hour interlude longer for quiet picnics.

Short, flat, easy trail along the Squamscott River. Starts right next to the Exeter Academy boathouse in downtown Exeter. (Good ice cream shop right there too...) Saw an osprey, great blue heron, several types of ducks (with ducklings - late June). Placid and pretty.

A wonderful park for walking and sitting on benches. Pets are not allowed. paved walking path along the river which is tidal. Many ducks and water birds to view. Sometimes you see a bald eagle perched in the tallest tree.

We frequently walk this parkway and never tire of the beauty with wonderful views of Exeter town center, the Mill, and nature. Blue herons, seagulls an eagle may be seen. An excellent interpretive map is at the start of the pathway. No dogs are permitted. Benches are conveniently placed. Wide grassy areas are fine places for children to play. For a feeling of the Exeter community be sure to take this walk.
