Arches National Park

The US National Park Service has just launched a new website for visitors with disabilities, under the name “National Parks: Accessible to Everyone” to help disabled visitors make the most of the facilities and activities at national parks. This is designed to supplement the accessibility information already provided on websites run by individual parks.

The new site gives information about sign language interpreters and which visitor centers have services for visually impaired park-goers, as well as detailed descriptions of trails and their surfaces, for visitors with mobility issues or who use wheelchairs.
