Walking Track: Salem Park, Cumberland Co., KY 2016-05-29 - Salem Park Road, Burkesville, Cumberland County, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com (c). Cumberland County's jewel of a small recreation area, Salem Park, offers a quiet area to walk and enjoy nature, a bit of history, and some interesting geological features at the confluence of Little Renox Creek and Big Renox Creek. The oval track was 300 strides of 30" when "tested" on Saturday. That means the minimum daily exercise of 10,000 steps can be achieved in only 34-35 turns. From Columbia's Downtown the park is about 25 miles. From Downtown Burkesville, KY, is under four miles. - EW/LW Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
