Great Smoky Mountains Adaptive Program Days
Join a Ranger to learn about the natural and cultural history of Great Smoky Mountains National Park!
We are excited to announce that our partnership with Great Smoky Mountains National Park is returning in 2025! Join a ranger to learn about the natural and cultural history of the park during one of our hiking, biking, kayaking and camping programs. During these programs adaptive equipment is welcome and volunteers will be available to assist with navigating the trail. Limited GRIT Freedom Chairs will be available to borrow, or visitors are welcome to bring their own equipment. (See each individual program page for details.)
