Accessible Trails
The following parks provide accessible hiking opportunities on trails or segments of trails that lead to significant features and/or environmental experiences within a park. An accessible trail is a recreational trail that has been constructed in compliance with federal standards for trail accessibility. Trailhead signs provide basic information on width, linear slope, cross slope, and trail surface material that enable visitors to select the trail that best meets their abilities and recreational expectations. Hikers are always urged to use caution as trail conditions change continually based on terrain, season, and environment.
Despite their accessible design, some accessible trails and improved access trails contain linear slopes, structures, or natural features that might be challenging to some users. Where an accessible trail or improved access trail contains one or more of these characteristics, it will be described on the accessible features page.
