Many park facilities and major areas of interest, such as Old Faithful, Mammoth Hot Springs, Canyon, Grant Village, Madison and Norris, have been judged to be negotiable by wheelchair users without assistance. These areas are described in the pamphlet, Visitors Guide to Accessible Features in Yellowstone National Park. The guide provides information about wheelchair availability, accessible fishing and backcountry campsites, and special programs offered to disabled persons. It's available free online and at all visitor centers in the park.
