Rhode Island's shortest - and very likely highest - nature walk. The tower that makes Tower Hill what it is provided a fantastic view of the area and is well worth the three-minute stair climb to the top.

Shady Lea Grove is a small picnic area on the side of Route 4, right at the intersection of Route 4 and Route 1. Not huge and not quiet, given the proximity to the highway, but a good place to sit and eat a sandwich.
