Highest Point in Rhode Island – Jerimoth Hill
Jerimoth Hill is the highest point in Rhode Island, standing at 812 feet in the town of Foster. For decades, it was one of the most difficult state high points to visit, not because of the climb—which is a very easy walk on a flat trail—but because the previous owner was famously restrictive about allowing people on his property. Today, the site is managed by the state and is easily accessible to the public. The summit is marked by a small rock outcropping in a wooded area, and while it doesn’t offer sweeping mountain vistas, it is a significant milestone for those attempting to visit the highest point in every U.S. state.
