The Friends of South Cumberland, the State and TVA
have made good efforts the past few years to provide a wilderness
experience for those of us with walking disabilities or who require a
wheel chair.

Foster Falls
In June 2004, TVA completed a wheel chair accessible
125 yard long walkway that leads from the Foster Falls parking area to a
spectacular view of Foster Falls. The viewing platform overlooking
the falls is partially shaded and is an ideal place to enjoy a picnic,
take photos or just enjoy the view. The trail passes through heavy
timber, across a small creek and a meadow. The Foster Falls
parking area has handicap enabled restroom facilities.
Stone Door
From the Stone Door Ranger Station there is a wheel
chair accessible paved path 7/10ths of a mile long that leads to the
Laurel Falls overlook with a wonderful view of part of Savage Gulf.
The Ranger Station near the parking area has handicap enabled restroom
facilities.
Grundy Forest
The Grundy Forest picnic pavilion parking area has
handicap enabled restroom facilities.
Visitors Center
The Meadow Trail at the Visitors center is not paved
but is mostly accessible by wheel chair. The Visitors Center has
handicap enabled restroom facilities.
