Description of Levels and Q/A

Nestled between routes 146 and routes 123 , Lincoln Woods State Park is one of Blackstone Valley's great treasures. A short ride from Providence, Pawtucket, and Cumberland, it is a popular get away for northeastern Rhode Islanders. Visitors can enjoy swimming at the fresh water beach, trout fishing, playing ball, hiking, jogging, horseback riding, or just relaxing under a shade tree. A new covered bridge at the Breakneck Hill entrance was dedicated in the spring of 2005.

The hike will be at a moderate, steady pace with few breaks and
will follow multiple trails, working our way around the park.

Bring plenty of water, a snack, bug spray, waterproof shoes, and dress appropriately for the weather.
