South County’s William C. O’Neill Bike Path is one of the premiere paths in the Northeast. The path was formerly called and is still frequently referred to as the South County Bike Path. Presently, the path is 7 miles in length but when completed, it will be approximately 8 miles. From the Kingston train station, the path follows the easement of the old Narragansett Pier Railroad passing through the villages of Peace Dale, Wakefield, and Narragansett, and will end near the Narragansett Town Beach.
