STEAM Day at Latta FAQs

The Raptor Trail is not ADA accessible. Our 3/4 mile trail winds through the woods of Latta Nature Preserve and includes uneven terrain, sloped paths, tripping hazards, and steps. There are benches throughout the trail for guests who wish to rest.

Wheelchairs are allowed on the Raptor Trail, but we recommend carefully considering whether the wheelchair user will be able to navigate the trail. It is not uncommon for a wheelchair user to have to leave their chair to navigate larger bumps on the Raptor Trail.
