Confirmed from Warwick City Park'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 with a playground, trails, and ball fields, plus a beach, waterfront, and dog park.
What runners say about Warwick City Park
“Absolutely wonderful well maintained park”
“Really nice park with a cute beach, dog park and beautiful walking trail.”
“Great park to walk, run, and ride your bike.”
“Pretty quiet and you forget you're in the middle of RI.”
“Really nice park with a cute beach, dog park and beautiful walking trail.”
I love walking my dog here ! Especially in winter when crowds are almost non-existent! Also love the beach in winter because my dog can run free and play all he wants ! Great place for sure ! Stay away from the dog park however , Just my advice !
Lots to see at Warwick City Park. The bike/walk path is really beautiful. You get to see the ocean, the fields, the dog park, and majestic looking woods. It’s a little bit of everything. The RC track is wicked cool. Love seeing enthusiasts tearing up the dirt.
Really nice park with a cute beach, dog park and beautiful walking trail. The only issue I have is the small playground near the softball fields. It’s really small and rundown. They used to have swings for the kids and for some reason they removed them.
Nice wide paved 2.9 mole loop. Scenic views around a lake and quaint neighborhood. Pretty quiet and you forget you're in the middle of RI. Lots of woods for shade and beachy areas to stop off and catch sun and relax. Trails that split off the paved road for dogs and kids to explore.

“3 mile circle to walk around the oark immersed in trees and birds, and yet paved the entire way so easy for us older folks.”
“There are wooded trails for walking at the left side of the beach parking lot.”
