Are the trails to the Ice Cave / Bandera Volcano wheel chair accessible?
It is very difficult to get wheel chairs and motorized scooters up and down the trails to the Ice Cave and Bandera Volcano, but every year we get several very hearty individuals that succeed at doing so. We are always open and try to give all of the necessary information needed for each individual who considers giving it a try. For those people who would like to try it, we do not charge an admission fee. Even if a person using a wheel chair can only make it partially down the trails, they usually find it very rewarding. We always recommend a person to help push and stabilize the wheel chair or motorized scooter. If you have a motorized wheel chair or scooter, make sure it is fully charged. Generally speaking, the bigger the tires the better. As natural landmarks it is a difficult balance to provide access while maintaining the integrity of the landmarks and this is especially true of the Ice Cave. The cave itself is the only place where you could not operate a wheelchair at all. Constr
