If you, or someone you know, has difficulty enjoying Maybury State Park because of mobility issues, the Track Chair may be perfect for you. The Friends of Maybury would like to give you a guided tour of Maybury State Park. These battery-powered Track Chairs can easily handle woodland trails, snow, sand, and up to six inches of water. The chair is operated by a joystick, or if desired, can be operated remotely by our guide.
How to operate and reserve a track chair
You can reserve the Track Chair at no cost by calling the park office at (248) 349-8390, Monday through Friday from 8am to 4:30pm. At your reserved time, a member of the Friends of Maybury who is knowledgeable about natural features and park history will meet you at the park headquarters building. Each hike will last for 1-2 hours based on your desire and will utilize both paved and unpaved trails.
Guided track chair hikes are generally offered May through October. Hikes are weather-dependent and might start earlier than May and might be available into November. It’s best to provide a couple of different day and time options for when you will be available to reserve the chair.
