Providence, RI: Blackstone Blvd.
East Bay Bike Path, Riverside
East Bay Bike Path, Bristol
Newport, RI: Cliff Walk
Our top suggestions:
  • From downtown Providence, go through Brown University campus
    and run or walk the city's most popular and comfortable on-foot
    exercise route, Blackstone Blvd.
  • Choose a segment of the scenic 14-mile East Bay Bike Path from
    Providence to Bristol, and make it into an outstanding outing,
    optionally using bus to finish the loop.  We suggest different options.
  • Run or walk all of Newport's famous Cliff Walk, and take in some
    mansions on the return leg.  No car needed if staying in Newport.
