Blackstone River Bikeway

Highlight • Cycleway

This is a teeny stretch of actual paved bike path. A great place to take a break, some water, some pics and get moving North toward the beginning of the full Balckstone River Bikeway (especially if you're coming from East Providence etc.)!

Blackstone River Bikeway – Central Falls Section

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Only Rhode island has really completed their section from Woonsocket to Central Falls. The completed trail doesn't reach either Worcester or Providence. At Central falls RI you can transition to on street bike lanes to reach Providence. North of Woonsocket over the Massachusetts line there are some spotty sections of trail but don't expect a continuous bike path like the pictures.

Blackstone River Bikeway Woonsocket Trailhead

Highlight • Cycleway

This is the main trailhead for the start of the Blackstone River Bikeway in Woonsocket. Although the whole Blackstone River Bikeway technically connects Worcester, Massachusetts to Providence, Rhode Island, the Woonsocket to Central Falls section is the only part on a completely dedicated bike path. At the trailhead there is a large parking lot with river views.

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway
