Take a tour of ten national parks in this overview of the ways in which they can be accessed by those with physical, sensory and learning limitations and their companions.

The National Parks of the U.S. are some of the most sought-after travel destinations in the world. But a visit to any one of them may seem daunting to someone with hearing, seeing, or other physical challenges. What many may not know is that the National Parks offer help to those with access needs. Here, Simon Hayhoe takes readers on a tour of ten National Parks and the accessibility options available to visitors and their companions.

He covers three regions of national parks in the east, center and west of the US. The eastern parks include Acadia National Park in Maine, the Everglades National Park in Florida and the Gettysburg National Military Park in Pennsylvania. The central parks include Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona, Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado, Yellowstone National Park, which is mostly in Wyoming and Zion National Park in Utah. The western parks include Denali National Park in Alaska, Olympic National Park in Washington State and Yosemite National Park in California.

Knowing how and where to tap into access points is the first step on your journey. So come along, and let this work guide you.

Hayhoe has also won numerous awards in his field, including a Fulbright Award and a Fellowship of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and he has presented his work at major museums and colleges in the US, Russia, the UK, Singapore, Belgium, and Italy.

I would like to thank the employees of the National Parks Service who provided information for this book and helped with the research. As they must remain anonymous, I cant thank them personally, but they know who they are. The five-step model was developed within the framework of the H2020 project ARCHES (http://www.ARCHES-project.eu), which has received funding from the European Unions Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under grant agreement no. 693229. In addition, I would like to acknowledge John Catt for helping with the chapter on inclusive technology.
