This Loop Trail Hike In Rhode Island Is Perfect In All Seasons

The tiny state of Rhode Island has a shocking amount of beautiful hikes to take! With over 100 unique trails in Little Rhody, you could take a new hike every week for almost two years before you have to repeat one, and we think that’s pretty magical. That said, some of these trails are not for all seasons and they can get icy, leafy, or far too hot. Luckily though, we have found a perfect little loop trail hike in Rhode Island that is ideal for all seasons.

Located in West Greenwich, Tillinghast Pond is a breathtaking body of water in all seasons.

The pond and surrounding area are protected by the nature conservancy as they lie in the center of the largest coastal forest between Washington D.C. and Boston.

The Nature Conservancies protections means that the land is safe from future development and that the water will remain clear and fresh for years to come.

There are some wooden boardwalks that look out over the pond on which to pause during your hike and admire the beauty.

If you do come in the warm months though, we recommend wearing your swimsuit because it will be hard not to want to take a little swim!
