Maryland Department of Disabilities issued the following announcement on July 2.
Planning your summer vacation? Check out some of the best the US National Parks has to offer-accessible trails!! Yes please!
Our National Parks are for everyone. They’re big, beautiful parts of the public domain. However, many parks, with their steep trails and limited access can perhaps feel physically exclusive.
In 1990, after the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), parks started to build wheelchair-accessible trails, campgrounds, exhibits and accommodations. These days, there are certainly some amazing options on offer.
Here are five of the coolest wheelchair-accessible trails at U.S. national parks. And remember, U.S. citizens (or permanent residents) with permanent disabilities can get a free access pass to National Parks.
