NATIONAL PARKS, NATIONAL MONUMENTS & NATIONAL RECREATION AREAS

Experience Yellowstone National Park’s most powerful geysers, geothermal springs and other popular sites with wheelchair- friendly paths. Plus, extend your visit with accessible in-park lodging.

In Grand Teton National Park, venture around alpine lakes, floral mountain meadows and majestic peaks with paved trails and adaptive recreation opportunities, like biking and skiing adventures organized via Teton Adaptive Sports.

Rising above the tallest trees and surrounding landscape is Devils Tower National Monument. Witness its greatness up close on the paved 1.3-mile path, though be careful of steeper grades, or explore its wheelchair-accessible exhibits.

See the intricate fossils of fish, reptiles and more at Fossil Butte National Monument with exhibits featuring assistive-listening devices (ALDs). Wheelchair-accessible areas include the visitors center, picnic area and restrooms.

Admire pond views and desert cultural sites via two wheelchair-friendly trails at Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area. Or learn about the region with park guides offered in Braille.

WYOMING STATE PARKS
