Our accessibility pages are currently under construction while the ADA team collects information at each of our parks. We recommend that you frequently check our website and our social media platforms to keep up on our ongoing projects and programs.

It is our goal at Arizona State Parks & Trails to collect key information for all of our visitors about the accessibility of park facilities and trails, and to provide our visitors with the most enjoyable and educational experience during visits to our parks

Here is a list of some of the fun, accessible things you will find at our parks.

Current Events and Programs

Accessible Trails

Many trails within our parks are accessible by wheelchair or for those with mobility issues. We are working to assess each trail and add information about specific trails at each park on each park's accessibility page. We also have many projects planned to update current trails and build new accessible trails.

Family Campouts

Arizona Family Campout Program weekends are designed for families with kids that have little or no experience camping. We will introduce you to the great experiences you can share with your family and inspire you to continue to explore the great outdoors from one of our campgrounds! We are constantly working to make our campouts accessible to everyone. Visit our Family Campout page for more information!

"We had sooo much fun at the Family Campout at Dead Horse Ranch. It was our first camping trip in 17 years, since Timmy’s father unexpectedly passed away in 2002. I’ve been afraid to take him into the wilderness due to his autism and challenges in following directions with only me to keep an eye on him. I am so happy that our family got this opportunity to camp with you and your excellent volunteers who helped us continuously throughout our trip. We could not have done this without you, and we had a wonderful time!! Thank you so much for the memories." - participant from the Family Campout Program
