Arkansas State Parks invited members of the media to an exclusive Media Field Trip on Thursday, March 13, 2025, at 10 a.m., at Pinnacle Mountain State Park to experience the transformative impact of the Trackchair initiative.

This event offered a hands-on opportunity to see the Trackchair in action, meet users who benefit from this technology, and heard their personal stories about the importance of accessibility in outdoor recreation.

Trackchairs at Pinnacle Mountain State Park can be reserved through Accessibly Across Arkansas at: Accessibility Across Arkansas Reservations

Arkansas State Parks is committed to expanding accessibility across the state. In 2024, we launched the Trackchair program at Logoly State Park, making it our first park to offer this service. We are also excited to announce plans to introduce the Trackchair program at Hobbs State Park-Conservation Area before the end of 2025, furthering our mission to make outdoor recreation accessible to all. arkansasstateparks.com+2accessibilityacrossarkansas.org+2arkansasstateparks.com+2

Key guidelines for Action Trackchairs at Arkansas State Parks include:

• Single Occupancy: The chair is designed for use by one person at a time.
• Safety Measures: Users are required to wear a seat belt and power off controls before entering or exiting the chair.
• Designated Areas: The chair may be used only on designated trails and areas within Logoly State Park.
• Liability Release: Users and companions waive all rights and claims against Arkansas State Parks, Accessibility Across Arkansas, and the Arkansas Department of Parks, Heritage, and Tourism for any incidents or injuries arising from the use of the chair.

To use the Action Trackchair, participants must complete an online training session and review the “Action Trackchair Owner’s Manual.” The User Agreement emphasizes personal responsibility and safe handling of the equipment.

The launch event included a live demonstration of the Action Trackchair, showcasing its capabilities and allowing attendees to see how it opens new possibilities for park exploration.

Arkansas State Parks invites visitors of all abilities to explore Pinnacle Mountain State Park with this innovative addition. For more information on the Action Trackchair, including guidelines and training sessions, please visit HERE.
