Arcadia Management Area

The Arcadia Management Area is a protected area in Richmond, Exeter, Hopkinton, and West Greenwich, Rhode Island. With an area of 14,000 acres, it is the state's largest recreational area. During the winter some of the roads going through the forest close and are only accessible by foot traffic.[1] In 2011, part of the film Moonrise Kingdom was filmed at the park.[2] The former Pine Top Ski Area on Escoheag Hill is located within Arcadia.
