Truckee Trails Foundation has completed a new forest accessibility trail at the Sawtooth trailhead. A name for the new trail will be announced in the future.
“As a trails nonprofit, we are thrilled to have achieved our goal of providing a trail that can be used by people with mobility challenges, including wheelchairs, or those just looking for a leisure stroll in the woods,” the Foundation announced in a Facebook post.
The 1-mile compacted trail is 36 inches wide and has less than a 3 percent grade. There are also passing and rest zones every 200 feet.
The trailhead is located a half-mile down U.S. Forest Service 06 Road, accessible from Thelin Drive in Truckee. | truckeetrails.org
