Cliff Walk offers a legendary view of the ocean and some of the famous Mansion Row homes from Newport's gilded age. The 3.5-mile path lies just above the rocks where water meets shore. The views are breathtaking, but this is a real hike, you will need to be sharp-eyed and nimble, wear very good walking shoes, and be prepared to climb over a few rough spots. The Newport Historical Society conducts guided tours for seven dollars every Saturday morning at 10am, from May to September.
