be expected. Many of the parks have dirt trails, but they are usually fairly smooth for walking, some do have paved

pathways and boardwalks. It is our expectation that guests on this program are able to walk up and down aflight of stairs, and get in and out of a motor coach without assistance. If you are able to walk a mile at a

moderate pace, you will be able to enjoy all of the excursions. Also keep in mind that you will experience varying

altitudes, rising up to 8,300 feet, to which you may not be accustomed.
