Meadow Recreation Center .. we restore the more rugged areas of the Park, such as woodlands and native meadows, the Conservancy adds rustic trails to expand opportunities for visitors to experience the scenery. Wherever feasible, trails are designed to meet the accessible trail guidelines of the Access Board, which include specific requirements for stable surfaces, trail width, passing spaces, maximum slopes, and resting intervals. Established to guide the development of accessible trails on federal lands (like the national parks), they take into account the more challenging terrain of natural outdoor areas, and are useful for increasing Access to the more wild regions of the Park. The Accessible Trails symbol indicates an area that includes trails designed to these standards.
