Track chairs are now available for loan at many Louisiana State Parks. Outfitted with tank tracks, these all terrain power wheelchairs allow folks to navigate trails that standard wheelchair can’t handle.” These specially-designed all-terrain chairs can really open up a world of new experiences for people with limited mobility,” said Lieutenant Governor Billy Nungesser. The track chairs were purchased with donations made to the Louisiana Park Foundation.

The Louisiana State Park track chairs are available at the following locations.

• Fontainebleau State Park
• Bogue Chitto State Park
• Jimmie Davis State Park
• Lake D’Arbonne State Park
• North Toledo Bend State Park
• Port Hudson State Historic Site
• Sam Houston Jones State Park
• Louisiana State Arboretum

Reservations for the track chairs must be made at least 48 hours in advance. The user must be accompanied by a companion that is at least 18 years old, and both the user and the companion must present a photo ID when picking up the track chair. A liability waiver must also be signed in order to borrow a track chair. Additionally, users under 16 must wear a helmet while operating the track chair.
