Description
Best Easy Day Hikes Rhode Island includes concise descriptions of the best short hikes in the area, with detailed maps of the routes. The 20 hikes in this guide are generally short and easy to follow. One of the benefits of being in such a small coastal state is that you can walk the cliffs of Newport in the morning and be in dense forest on the western side of he state after lunch. Just because you're in downtown Providence doesn't mean that you can't take a day hike anywhere in the State. Within an hour, you can be deep in the woods far from civilization or along the ocean beach, even though the closest main road will undoubtedly be only 3 miles away in either direction. Let Steve Mirsky take you to the best, often hidden, hiking routes right here in Rhode Island.
