Hashtag 59's Season 3 Podcast is 50 Episodes long and each episode will provide SIX outdoor adventures in each of the US's 50 states. We are doing these episodes in ABC Order of the states and episode thirty-nine is Rhode Island. The goal is to give you ideas and opportunities to experience outdoor adventure anywhere and everywhere in the United States of America. Here's our list for Rhode Island: 1. New England is the best place to see the foliage, especially in Rhode Island. Take a drive through the Blackstone Valley from Pawtucket to Smithfield and Woonsocket. Or down Route 1 in Westerly in the Southern Part of the State. If you prefer hiking, you could walk through the wooded areas of Roger Williams State Park in Providence or Goddard Memorial State Park in Warwick. 2. Visit Sachuest Point National Wildlife Refuge and take a beach hike. The Sachuest Point National Wildlife Refuge Trail is a 2.4 mile trail is an easy seaside hike. 3. Visit Lincoln Woods State Park: Located just north of Providence, this state park provides hiking, horseback riding and swimming at a fresh water beach. 4. Ride the East Bay Bike Path: This 14.5 scenic paved bicycle trail runs from Providence to Bristol. The flat pathway makes for easy peddling and there are plenty of spots along the way to slow down and take in the incredible views. 5. Go seal watching! In North Kingston, spend an afternoon at the John H. Chafee Nature Preserve. A two-mile loop trail will take you out to Rome Point where from October to April you can chance upon seals hanging out on the rocks. The rest of the year, the trail is an enjoyable hike with lots of scenery. 6. Fort Wetherill. Check out the ruins of this abandoned military fort in Jamestown. Fort Wetherill is a 61-acre recreation area that also offers kayaking, scuba diving, swimming at the beach, or just random exploring.
