Track chairs

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.
