3. 5.0 Doug Rayner Wildlife Refuge (1 review)
   - A beautiful walk - and ideal for social distancing
   Nature & Wildlife Areas
   
   
   Not exactly sure why this beautiful place was not previously listed on Trip Advisor. In the time of COVID 19 it is an ideal place for a nice easy walk - fields and water views - without a lot of people. George Street is near the MA/RI border off New Meadow Road. The loop trail is about 1.5 miles long. Also note the memorial by the gate - a Baptist Church which was burned down in King Phillips War (1675-1676). See more..
   
4. 4.5 Osamequin Nature Trails and Bird Sanctuary (6 reviews)
   - Natural beauty readily accessible for all ages
   Spent 1-2 hours Hiking Trails
   
   
   Explore the many easy-to-walk loops of Osamequin Nature Preserve in any season to discover the wetlands and coastal beauty of Rhode Island. Owned by the Town of Barrington and managed jointly by the Barrington Land Conservation Trust and the Barrington Garden Club, the trail system have been newly revamped. Don't miss the viewing platform for a bride eye view to the wetlands. In spring and summer seasons, ospreys can easily be seen nesting on a large platform just offshore. Bald eagles might be seen fishing along the shoreline in winter months. This is a local treasure open to all. See more..
   
5. 2.0 Haines Memorial State Park (1 review)
   - cook out
   State Parks
   this is a nice area in Barrington. It has boat docks and picnic areas. It also hosts farmers markets on Wednesdays in Summer. Unfortantely it has been neglected. The stone fireplaces are falling apart. There are dead trees and branches that need to be taken care of. Trash left in park, leaves and branches have not been picked up in quite a while. This is a beautiful area and its a shame what has been allowed to happen See more..
