Paterson has been ranked by Prevention Magazine, a health conscious life style magazine, as the 7th best out of 25 other towns for outdoor walking.On its page the magazine cited, “Paterson boasts a dense infrastructure that makes it easy to complete errands on foot.” and “the city offers a mix of historic walking tours, as well as access to the nature trails.”

The magazine, it can be speculated, must have taken into account the natural beauty of the Great Falls while writing the piece; for the article comes with spectacular picture of the Paterson Falls.
