A good hike out in nature can be so invigorating to the spirit. We all need a breath of fresh air after so much time inside, and we are lucky that Rhode Island has so many awesome places to get it. There are trails of all kinds around the state, and some come with extra little bonuses on top of their natural beauty. For example, this trail in Narragansett will lead you to some gorgeous ruins!

The Black Point trail in Narragansett is an easy 2.1-mile walk that is doable for hikers of all skill levels.

You get to see multiple types of terrain on this hike as well. The trail starts in a wooded area, but the majority of it gives you impressive seaside views, so there is a little bit of everything Rhode Island is famed for.

Over the years the home changed hands multiple times, and only after the third time it caught fire, were the ruins bought by the Department of Environmental Management.

The facade is now left to slowly crumble and wait for the rising tides to eventually take it into the ocean, but as of right now, it is still quite an impressive sight and a very beautiful mid-hike reward.
