More info

All our guided tours involve nearly one mile of walking in a mostly outdoor environment. Please dress accordingly and understand that tours may be canceled due to weather.

Accessibility note: Regarding handicapped accessibility, much of our tour takes place along a gravel paved road, accessible for wheelchairs and handicapped use. Beyond our gravel path the tour takes visitors into our land defenses along a mostly dirt and grass walkway. While this too is accessible by wheelchairs, we recommend that someone accompany you to help push the chair as the ground can be uneven. There exist only two sections of our tour that are not handicapped accessible: our overlook, on top of the Fort walls, and our underground listening tunnels. Both sections are always optional and once the remainder of the group has viewed either, the tour continues along its original route.
