Accessibility
The goal of Midland County Parks and Recreation is to make the outdoors accessible to all. We purposely plan to do this by removing barriers that might inhibit individuals ability to have a worthwhile experience on our public lands.
Did you know that when Midland County Parks applies for Michigan Department of Natural Resources funding to build a new project (by law) the site needs to be accessible and grant equal opportunity and usage to all abilities? We believe that access should not limit the opportunities that public land can provide.
- Over 18 miles of paved, barrier free, smooth surfaced access on the Pere Marquette Rail Trail.
- Barrier-free modern bathrooms at Sanford Lake Park and zero barrier entry to the splash pad on site.
- Barrier free porta-johns are available at all rustic staffed parks.
- Handicapped and van accessible parking lots at all trailhead locations on the Pere Marquette Rail Trail.
