Newport offers 38.3 miles of trails, all of them open for hiking. Of these, 16.8 miles also are open to off-road bicycles. In the winter, 26.3 miles of trails are available for cross-country skiing, including, 12.5 miles groomed and tracked for classical skiing and 2 miles groomed for skate skiing, and 4.5 miles are open for snowshoeing.

One of our favorite parks
A fall hike in Newport makes you feel as though you are the only people in the park. Any time of the year is a lovely experiance. We recommend one of the guided hikes with the Naturalist.
