This famous drive is also a spectacular run. This road runs for 4.5 miles between Castle Hill and Bellevue Ave., with great views of Rhode Island Sound and historic coastal homes. Note: Narrow shoulder.

The iconic 3.5 mile Cliff Walk is a 'must do' in Newport. Spectacular views of the ocean & crashing surf on one side, and Newport's gilded age mansions on the other. Most of it is easy-moderate. Go early or off-season to beat the crowds! Famous for daffodils in April!
Combines the scenic Newport waterfront with the Bellevue Ave. mansions and the spectacular Ocean Ave. for a Newport grand tour of 11.6 miles. Good options for longer & shorter. Note: some parts lack sidewalks.
A nice spot for a standalone run: the loop on mainly waterfront paths and a tour of the fort is 2.5 miles. Great views! For longer, combine with a jaunt over to Castle Hill, or as part of our Newport Grand Tour.
