Confirmed from Pout Pond'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.
Picnicking, fishing, swimming, hiking, and a playground are offered at this destination.
What runners say about Pout Pond
“Clean sand, restrooms really close by and there's picnic tables as well as chairs to put in the sand provided by the beach.”
Pout pond is a small pond. Provides a even smaller (beach) for kids to go in water. You got a family picnic area, swings and good number of chairs and benches facing the pond. In addition to that it has got two trails - blue and red will take 15 minutes to complete one loop of pond.
Great local beach that feels like a hidden gem every time I go. Cost $3 per person, under 2 is free (cash only). Out of towner's are welcome. Lots of parking in close proximity to the beach so no long walks. There are swings, picnic tables, restrooms, fishing and hiking trails that go around the entire pond.
This is a good local pond and set of running trails. I appreciate the rustic feel of the trails, which keeps away some but unfortunately not all of the dog walkers. I've never seen a map of the trails, but the area is small enough that hikers and runners won't get horribly lost.
Great place to take the kids swimming. Kind of small but well maintained beach, with bathrooms. They usually charge a nominal fee. There are hiking trails that go around the pond and back towards the Blackstone River. There’s pretty good fishing, but it’s better to do it in a canoe or kayak.
