Blackstone Valley

4
Tucked in the northeast corner of Rhode Island, Blackstone Valley is becoming increasingly popular with outdoor enthusiasts thanks to its natural beauty. In the 18th and the 19th centuries, this pretty valley was home to a booming textile industry and the birthplace of the American Industrial Revolution. A historic cotton-spinning factory turned museum in Pawtucket preserves this industrial heritage. Nature lovers and families on a Blackstone Valley trip can base themselves in Lincoln and then explore the eponymous woods, cycle along 17 km (11 mi) of a riverside bikeway, or pick fruit at one of the area's family-owned farms. Explore the family-friendly attractions of Blackstone Valley and add them to your vacation plans using our United States trip planning tool.
