How safe is the path from Disney Springs to the Disney Springs Resorts at night?

I've done it plenty of times with zero issues. Probably the biggest hazard is cutting across the parking lots and streets in the resorts. One time after dark I was walking across an intersection and then trying to walk on the grass, and one of the maintenance guys in a golf cart reminded me that I wasn't very visible in the dark.
 
Just walked it last night at about 11pm (Disney springs to doubletree). There are nice sidewalks and it’s pretty well lit. You can use a pedestrian bridge to cross hotel blvd. The only people around are vacationers staying at the local hotels.

Its safer then 99% of any city streets. Just keep aware of your surroundings like you would anywhere
 
No guarantees in life obviously, and the usual advice of be aware of your surroundings and use common sense will always hold true. However I've always felt safe going back and forth between DS and Saratoga Springs, even in the early morning darkness while going for a run, before DS opens. I do have to say there is a small dark path through a small patch of woods in between DS and Saratoga Springs that says "do not enter after dusk." Well silly me ran through it in the dark and it was creepy, but it was short and safe.

I know the area you are talking about. I would be more afraid of animal critters than anything else, even during the day. There is no lighting at all.
 
I always stay at the Delta and walk to Disney Springs. I sometimes walk back or sometimes take a Lyft or Cab (Depending on if I over imbibed or not!)
 
I think the main street and sidewalk is well lit and fine (altho it's different for a man vs a woman alone) it's that last bit to the actual hotel that gave me pause, I stayed at Hilton Palace,and it felt isolated after I got off the bridge and turned down that last stretch of sidewalk....I was glad I had company. If I were directly on the main road I think I wouldn't have been concerned.
 
Probably one of the safest areas in America. A far cry from the streets of Hollywood (with the stars on the sidewalks) that has been taken over by homeless people and trash.
