General Accessibility Information
The distance from the admission kiosk to the classroom and the more cultivated, shaded portion of the Garden is 212 yards-long. This includes a 24 yards-long ramp that meets ADA slope requirement. There are areas of the Garden where the path material is more gravel-like, areas where the sloped path is lawn, and in those cases, we have alternative routes available that could be used. Please let us know of any accessibility concerns prior to the start of camp, contact education@idahobotanicalgarden.org.
