Location Details: The Blackstone River and Canal Heritage State Park recalls the role of canals in transporting raw materials and manufactured goods between emerging industrial centers. Walk along restored sections of the Blackstone River Canal and Towpath from the River Bend Farm Visitors Center.

This park is operated in conjunction with the Blackstone River Valley National Heritage Corridor which extends from Worcester to Providence, Rhode Island. Straddling the town line between Uxbridge and Northbridge is a 1000 acre natural area offering walking and hiking paths, canoe access, picnic areas and a broad expanse of the Blackstone River known as Rice City Pond, which is a great area for watching wildlife.

This park offers great fishing from both shore line and small non-engine boats. There are multiple canoe/kayak portages to both the river and the canal. Shore wise there is also walking trails, restrooms, grills and picnic tables, hunting during season (the park is stocked with Pheasant), and many events through-out the season for all ages and ability.
