<\/a>Everyone \u2013\u00a0 regardless of age or ability needs their Nature Fix.\u00a0 Learn where to go and share what you know.<\/p>\n
This is a collection of links to places you can go to enjoy nature with minimal obstacles. These are trails that are either wheelchair accessible or at least very easy walking.\u00a0 The emphasis is contemplative outdoor experiences, but I do have a few links to organizations and places which offer more exciting venues under the Adventures tab.<\/p>\n
What the icons mean<\/h2>\n
The trails described here fall into two levels of accessibility: Very Easy or Wheelchair Accessible.<\/p>\n
Regardless of the designation given on this or any other site, it is always wise to call or write ahead to ascertain trail difficulty and current conditions.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n For each trail given, I have a link to the park, refuge etc. that manages it. \u00a0Contact them to learn if a trail is appropriate for you.<\/p>\n I need ideas for places to include. \u00a0Photographs too. \u00a0I am happy to give credit to those who contribute ideas and your name and \u00a9 will go in the captions of any photographs I use. \u00a0Presently I have links to information about parts of eastern Canada, all of the states in the United States of America, American Samoa and a little about activities in the UK. \u00a0Please help the website grow! \u00a0Contact me<\/a> from any page on this site.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Everyone \u2013\u00a0 regardless of age or ability needs their Nature Fix.\u00a0 Learn where to go and share what you know.

Many of these trails are quite short or if long, the first part of them is easy. \u00a0Again, this classification is based on online description, or first hand knowledge as told to, or experienced by me.\u00a0\u00a0 This is a highly subjective choice.<\/p>\n<\/a>\u00a0The eye symbol designates a trail designed to help those with visual impairment. \u00a0There might be signs in Braille, audio interpretive information, and\/or rope guides.<\/p>\n
