SummarY
The NAC and Camp Oakley are partnered to provide fully accessible camping trips in the mountains of Northern Utah. Just 20 minutes from the National Ability Center are 4 fully accessible yurts along the Weber River, in the heart of a purpose-built ranch for individual with disabilities to explore and fall in love with the outdoors. Please join us as we camp, play games, fish, explore the surrounding trails, and roast marshmallows around the fire. This trip welcomes people of all ability levels to meet other amazing people, camp with full access to roll in showers and restrooms, and get stoked on the outdoors. Our expert guides will lead programming, provide all transportation, food and lodging! Please reach out with any questions, sign up, and let us take it from there!
