Can you walk to Boardwalk from Swan Reserve?

But the walk to the Boardwalk from the Swan Reserve is significantly longer than from the Swan itself - it would probably take you at least 15 minutes to walk to the Boardwalk bus stop from the Reserve.



Yes, you can easily walk to Disney’s BoardWalk from the Swan Reserve hotel. The Swan Reserve is part of the Epcot Resort Area and is located just across the street from the original Swan and Dolphin resorts. To get to the BoardWalk, you simply exit the Swan Reserve and follow the well-marked, paved pedestrian path that leads past the Swan and Dolphin toward the Crescent Lake promenade. The walk takes approximately 10 to 12 minutes at a leisurely pace. Once you reach the lakefront, the BoardWalk Inn and its vibrant collection of shops, restaurants, and street performers will be directly across the water or a short stroll around the lake's perimeter. This walking path is one of the most scenic in Walt Disney World, providing direct access to the International Gateway entrance of Epcot and the Disney Skyliner station. It is a completely safe, well-lit route that allows guests to enjoy the evening entertainment of the BoardWalk without needing to rely on Disney's bus or boat transportation systems.
