SUMMARY:Walk the PVD Crosstown Trail: A 13-Mile Urban Hike
DESCRIPTION:Inspired by the San Francisco Crosstown Trail\, this walking route traverses both quiet neighborhoods and a variety of parks across the city of Providence. The first half of the trail (7.5 miles\, 2.5 hours) starts at Neutaconkanut Hill and proceeds through Merino Park\, the Woonasquatucket River Greenway\, and Pleasant Valley Parkway to the downtown River Walk. We’ll stop for lunch at the Van Leesten Pedestrian Bridge (bring your own lunch). Walkers can peel off there\, or continue for the second half of the trail (5.5 miles\, 2 hours)\, a surprisingly easy walk from downtown to Roger Williams Park\, Columbia Park\, and the gorgeous Urban Coastal Greenway at Fields Point. The guide is Justin Boyan\, Providence dad and co-founder of Climate Action Rhode Island.  This is a rigorous urban hike; please bring water and wear comfortable walking/hiking shoes. Rain date is Sept. 29.
