Get lost for an autumn afternoon in the vibrant foliage at Fisherville Brook Wildlife Refuge in Exeter. It is the largest and one of the most diversely beautiful properties owned by the Audubon Society of Rhode Island.

There are quaint footbridges crossing over gurgling streams and even a small waterfall. And you'll find plenty of spots that are worthy of a photo or two.
The property even houses a historic cemetery - a perfect diversion to visit during the Halloween season.
Pack a picnic and enjoy lunch under the stunning canopy of yellow, orange, and red. It's easy to spend a few hours surrounded by the autumn colors.
The 1,010-acre wildlife refuge is open sunrise to sunset daily. Plan your visit now before the fall colors fade away.
