Wheelchair AccessibleThere is an accessible concrete walkway at the main viewing area for Crater Lake.  Another viewing area, the Watchman Overlook, has a ramp to its deck.   We didn’t get to them, but there are three short trails in the forest described as “Accessible to wheelchair users with assistance”.   These are The Pinnacles, Godfrey Glen, and the first 3/4 of the 2.2 mile Plaikni Falls trail.
