Confirmed from Ken Weber Conservation Area At Cascade Brook's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Park offering kid-friendly hiking and short trails that lead to seasonal waterfalls.
What runners say about Ken Weber Conservation Area At Cascade Brook
“The trail is well-marked with blue stripes on the tree, but even if you wander off trail a bit, you can get back on the path with no problem.”
My daughter and I had a lovely time exploring these woods. The waterfall was serene and fun to get to! She got excited every time she saw a new blue mark and knew we were going the right way. We veered off the trail for a little bit to find a geocache and that was exciting!
Very nice short 1.1mile trail to a small stream at the beginning. The trail is well-marked with blue stripes on the tree, but even if you wander off trail a bit, you can get back on the path with no problem. Definitely recommend to check it out with kids and pets!
Nice easy little loop trail in Greenville, RI. There are a lot of great things to notice along the trail. An interesting variety of terrain... rocky parts get slippery when it rains or is damp! So, be careful! The highlight of the trail is Rhode Island’s largest waterfall!
Trail was very well marked. I came here during the summer so the waterfall was at a trickle but the stroll through the woods was very pleasant.
