Rhode Island may be a small state, but it’s big on nature. Our outdoor recreation is second to none, especially since we have miles and miles of beautiful coastline. It’s even possible to get “lost” in the woods, although you’ll definitely know the way out. All you have to do is find the Weetamoo Woods Trail.
Weetamoo Woods is located near the town of Tiverton.

The main trail in the park is about 4.5 miles long and loops around the entire forest.

Since the path is flat, well-marked, and largely boardwalked, this trail is ranked as an easy hike.

The trail has some gentle slopes, rocky pathways, and lush, green plant life.
