Nature for Everyone

Can’t Hike? No Problem.

The Great Outdoors isn’t all that great for people who can’t hike to the area’s scenic vistas, meadows or quiet woods.

Lake Metroparks has a solution. If you’d like to help an aging loved one enjoy the parks (or your own cranky knees or a bad back keep you from exploring the outdoors), try a trail cart tour.

Register for one of the scheduled tours that takes visitors to Chapin Forest Reservation, Lake Erie Bluffs or one of the other parks in the sprawling Lake Metroparks system. Or request a custom group tour for your family and friends who aren’t able to explore on their own.

For pricing and other details, go to lakemetroparks.com and search for trail cart tours, or call 440-358-7275.
