Trail of Tears National Historic Trail
Accessibility
 

National Park Service areas along the Trail of Tears National Historic Trail, including Arkansas Post National Memorial, Fort Smith National Historic Site, and Pea Ridge National Military Park, generally meet accessibility standards for people with disabilities.

However, because of the varied nature and rural character of the many certified sites making up the Trail of Tears National Historic Trail, it is best that you inquire locally about accessibility when contacting specific sites for visitation information.

Did You Know?
The Cherokee people in the southeastern United States built European-style homes and farmsteads, developed a written language, established a newspaper, and wrote a constitution. But they had no equal protection under the law and could not prevent being removed from their homes on the Trail of Tears.
