Salem is host to a tremendous number of canoeing and camping enthusiasts who come to the Ozark National Scenic Riverways for unparalleled natural beauty, wildlife, crystal-clear waters, gentle currents, deep, tranquil pools, excellent trout fishing, and warm hospitality. Many of the floating guests spend their day on the river, then spend their evenings enjoying the creature comforts of Salem’s restaurants, lodging, parks, and recreational opportunities. After a day of paddling, fishing, or simply soaking up the sun, you might spend and evening enjoying a concert, eating a delicious meal, or attending one of the many events and festivals that occur throughout the year in Salem, such as a rodeo, horse show, carnival, fireworks display, community theatre, craft fair, art show, auto club cruise-in, or cultural event. When the evening winds down you can rest up in one of the comfortable motels or full service hotel.
