Action Trackchair
The Action Trackchair is an electric, all-terrain wheelchair with rubber tracks designed to safely provide wheelchair users or those who would have a harder time walking on trails with a mobility device that can provide access across areas inaccessible with a conventional wheelchair such as sloped, sandy and rocky surfaces. The chair comes with arm and footrests and two joysticks, one for the chair user and a second for a companion. Fully charged, the chair can go for approximately 7 miles and has a digital battery life indicator.
The chair is seasonally available at three locations: Indian Springs Metropark (Spring), Kensington Metropark (Summer), Hudson Mills Metropark (Fall). It is available to rent for free, allowing visitors the ability to enjoy select nature trails. Please note, a companion or attendant is required as Metroparks staff will not be able to assist with transfers or operating the chair.
