The park Visitor Center is wheelchair accessible. The park also has two wheelchairs to loan out to visitors for use during their visit.
The park's Earth Lodge has a long low clearance and narrow entrance and is not accessible to most wheelchairs. The parth to the Earth Lodge has a steep incline of 10%.
The most visited mounds in the park you can access by automobile, however, to get to the top you must climb 80 steps.
Our 17 minute orientation film is closed captioned for deaf/hard of hearing visitors.
Color-correction eyeglasses are available for loan at the Visitor Center for use during your visit. These specialized eyeglasses filter colors and allow an individual who has red or green color weakness or red or green colorblindness to see those color hues. Eyeglasses are available in adult and children’s sizes. Please note that the success of color correction varies from person to person.
Service Animals
Only Service Animals are permitted to be in the Visitor Center.
"Service animal means any dog that is individually trained to do work or perform tasks for the benefit of an individual with a disability, including a physical, sensory, psychiatric, intellectual, or other mental disability. Other species of animals, whether wild or domestic, trained or untrained, are not service animals for the purposes of this definition.
The work or tasks performed by a service animal must be directly related to the handler's disability. Examples of work or tasks include, but are not limited to, assisting individuals who are blind or have low vision with navigation and other tasks, alerting individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing to the presence of people or sounds, providing non-violent protection or rescue work, pulling a wheelchair, assisting an individual during a seizure, alerting individuals to the presence of allergens, retrieving items such as medicine or the telephone, providing physical support and assistance with balance and stability to individuals with mobility disabilities, and helping persons with psychiatric and neurological disabilities by preventing or interrupting impulsive or destructive behaviors.
The crime deterrent effects of an animal's presence and the provision of emotional support, well-being, comfort, or companionship do not constitute work or tasks for the purposes of this definition."
