Check the specific walkway — but expect stairs.

Probably not impossible, but I wouldn’t bring a heavy stroller unless you’re okay lifting it over steps. Most wooden walkways over uneven terrain (like Goat Island or similar nature boardwalks) have stairs at some points. Wheelchair-accessible routes are sometimes separate from the main boardwalk, but not always.


I can’t tell you the exact layout without knowing which Goat Island you mean — there’s more than one. But here’s what I’d do: look up the specific trail info on the park’s website or call the visitor center. They’ll tell you how many stairs exist and whether a stroller-friendly alternative path is available.

If you’re set on bringing a stroller, go lightweight and foldable. An umbrella stroller is way easier to carry up steps than a jogger. Better yet, if the kid is small enough, bring a baby carrier. You’ll enjoy the view more without fighting a stroller on narrow walkways.
