Hiking area

👍👍 Walked the red trail. It was very fun. The trail went up above some rocks and looped right back around. Trail is covered with trees making it very cool to walk. I can't wait to see how it is in the summer. The area at the start of the trail fits maybe 3 cars if they park nicely. I'm not sure where...

Audubon Society of Rhode Island Nature Center and Aquarium

Park

👍👍 Update Summer 2023 - still a great place to spend several hours and don't forget to walk to the end of the boardwalk to see the bay and the Osprey nests! This is a multifaceted nature center where you can spend an entire day, or just take time for a beautiful walk down to the bay. The Nature center...

The Monastery

Recreation center

👍👍 This is a nice destination, you can choose for an easy stroll on a gravel trail or you can explore more discrete side trails. There are some interesting stones from previous structures or just old construction material in the form of stone slabs left in the woods. It's mostly shady and felt cooler...

Fort Barton and Ft. Barton Woods

Historical landmark

👍 Well maintained trails and a spectacular view from the observation tower - make this historic place a stop on your next trip to Tiverton. The only drawback: The trails can be quite muddy (there is marshland, after all). I visited during a drought and they were still wet in places. Additionally, wear...

Mass Audubon's Oak Knoll Wildlife Sanctuary

Wildlife refuge

👍 A lovely trail and place! I did the Woody's Way trail around the lake (there is another in a more wooded area). I was told this is the one to take to see more wildlife. While I didn't see any today, it was still a peaceful and pretty walk. There are narrow boardwalks in some areas heading out toward...

Audubon George Parker Woodland Wildlife Refuge

👍👍 We went on the short hike from PKG lot 1. Took a right, stayed in blue trail. It was wonderful to hear and see the birds and to get some exercise. Just about 3 miles, some good inclines and declines. A solid intermediate hike. Bring water and bug spray and possibly a pair of pruners. There are parts...
