Lincoln Woods State Park is a 627-acre recreation area in Lincoln, Rhode Island, around Olney Pond, about four miles from Pawtucket. The park is known for the giant glacial boulders and the rocky terrain. Until the 1940s, the park was known as Quinsnicket, a name given by white settlers. The park has a freshwater beach on Olney Pond, large picnicking area and trails for horseback riders, mountain bikers, snowmobilers and hikers. There are also facilities for boating, ice skating and fishing, as well as a few game fields. Canoe and kayak rentals and kayaking lessons are offered by a local company. The park is also a popular spot for bouldering, a type of rock climbing without ropes or harnesses.
