From Route 4 take exit 7 to Route 403. Exit to Route 1 (Post Rd) and head left. Take your first right on Gate Rd and turn left into the shops at Quonset Point Plaza. The trail starts behind the plaza off of Newcomb Rd You may also park at the eastern end of the trail between the Quonset Point Bike Path and Sanford Rd Path. Continue down Gate Rd to a traffic circle. Head left on Davisville Rd, then left on Marine Rd to the parking lot.
Started my run from the Home goods location and it was pretty easy to get on the bath. Park in the main lot, Take the road that leads around back to the left of the store and there is a foot path that connects you. When starting from this location the path is longer than what is said on the official length. I’d say it more like 3.5-4 miles. Other that that its a beautiful trail the brings you all the way to the water front.
Park at end of Marine Rd NK. NOT by Home Goods. good 1.25 mile walk each way . Many areas of the trail is in the shade.
The trail leads down to the ocean and it’s just a gorgeous view! Not a lot of parking, but never overcrowded.
