ABOUT
Adventure: Wanderlust Tours is excited to bring more access to the outdoors by partnering with AdvenChair to help those with mobility challenges get into the outdoors and explore beautiful areas that initially may not seem accessible. With the AdvenChair off-road wheelchair and the incredible team of volunteers at AdvenChair, we will enjoy the reward of stunning views and learn about the incredible geologic history of Smith Rock State Park!
Naturalist Guided Experience: Arriving at the awe-inspiring Smith Rock State Park, we. will begin our descent into the Crooked River canyon and hike along the spectacular riparian habitat. From here our options are many, from a beautiful and flat wander along the river scouting for otters and osprey to a steeper hike up a ridge for stunning views of the Cascade Mountains! Both hikes will enliven the senses and spark wonder at the fantastic geology that shapes this incredible canyon.

A CLOSER LOOK AT THE ADVENCHAIR
The AdvenChair is an all-terrain, human-powered hiking wheelchair that allows people with mobility challenges to experience the serenity and grandeur of wild places with family and friends.
With its adjustable handlebars and hand brakes, adjustable seat and harness, a team of one to six people can navigate the AdvenChair off-road wheelchair over rugged, soft or steep terrain with the stability and durability of a mountain bike. At the same time, its removable front wheels and ergonomic design allow the AdvenChair to easily pass through doorways and maneuver indoors, or to be disassembled for transport in the trunk of a car.
Please watch the video below to see how you and your team will operate the AdvenChair to maneuver through uneven terrain and go where no chair has gone before!
