The Rails-to-Trails Accessibility Guide provides practical advice and best practices for designing accessible trails. It covers key aspects such as trail surface materials, gradients, and width, as well as considerations for amenities like signage and rest areas. The guide aims to help trail builders and managers create trails that are inclusive and usable for people with a range of disabilities, ensuring a positive outdoor experience for all users.
