This free walk along the cliffs has paved and stone portions that require comfortable walking shoes to enjoy. Though it's 3.5 miles, there are several places one can start or exit at the end of streets. Water is a good idea for a long walk.

The Cliff Walk is a nice, relaxing, peaceful stroll. The views are really beautiful, and it is just really nice to walk by the homes and really enjoy the pretty views of the water. If you're in Newport, check out this area. More

We did the entire length of the Cliff Walk the first day we were in Newport. Heed the cautions about footwear. Also, it would be good to take along some water, especially if the day is warm. And have a plan for how you're going to get back. We loved the views and the challenges. I'd do it again in... More
