Parking in multiple locations but this is where I usually park: Front Street, Cumberland

Blackstone River bike way is pretty amazing. We saw flowing water with bike / walking paths that went in various directions paralleling the Blackstone River. The vegetation and wild flowers were abundant because of the water body. My daughter just loved to explore the paths down to the waterway so she could try to find frogs. She also made mention to the fact that the land is very flat and without hills. This is therefore, a great place to ride bikes with young kids that are just learning and may be timid of sloping landscape. The grounds are paved with two spacious lanes. The views are spectacular with birds chirping along the paths. People are upbeat and friendly. We saw a lot of families and dogs on leashes.

 

 

• Weather : This is an outdoor location so you need a good dry day
• Parking and Admissions : Free and ample parking 
• Location : Blackstone River Bikeway is the second-longest bike path in Rhode Island, with 18.2 miles of bikeway along the Blackstone River
• Hours : sunrise to sunset
• Duration : We spent 2 hours here. 
• Tips and Recommendations :  Bikes and or trailers for the little kids because they get tired fast on their own bikes, skate boards, roller skates, pets, snacks, a book, water-just some beautiful relaxing sights to rest or a great place to exercise!
