Osceola Island Loop Reviews

This is one of the best and most unknown trails in Bristol. The trail is quite and feels serene. The river runs on each side and there is not much around to make noise. The loop trail is flat, with only one very small section with a slight incline. This is perfect for children and pets. The trail is perfect to go for a stroll or run. There are plenty of places along the trail to step off and fish. Benches are located throughout the loop to take a break and take in the sights and sounds of nature. This is the perfect place to view wildlife. River otters, deer, squirrels, and other animals often make an appearance. Wildflowers and other shrubbery can also be observed.
