Newport Cliff Walk

Newport, RI

Sunday April 13th, 2008

Newport Cliff Walk The Newport Cliff Walk will never be mistaken for backcountry, but it's 3.5 mile stretch of rocky New England coastline is nonetheless a fun outdoor adventure. We hiked it on a beautiful partly sunny Sunday, beginning at Easton's Beach and proceeding all the way to the southern terminus on Bellevue Avenue, followed by a walk into town and back to our starting point.
