Scituate Reservoir: the Scituate Reservoir supplies fresh water to more than 60% of Rhode Island residents. It’s the largest body of freshwater in the state with about 39 billion gallons of capacity. Free public field tours are offered during different seasons of the year. These walking tours visit project sites on different parts of the property and are designed to give people a better understanding of forestry and land management issues. The reservoir is also a beautifully scenic area, a perfect backdrop for bike rides, walks, and jogs.
Westconnaug Meadows: protected and run by the Scituate Land Trust & Conservation Commission, this small hiking trail is about 1.5 miles through relatively easy, low elevation forested lands. The trailhead begins right near Clayville Elementary School.
Esek Hopkins Trail: a short hiking trail near Battery & Meetinghouse Road in Scituate. The trail is approximately 1.2 miles in length and features several old “fire roads” and extensive stone walls. The marked trails lead in a double loop before circling back to the trailhead entrance.
