Accessibility The first part of the 0.4 mile (650 meter) dirt trail to Kule Loklo is quite steep, but then the trail levels off with relatively minimal cross slope. However, the dirt trail does pass over some exposed tree roots, which may be difficult for some to get over. Many gopher holes fill the grassy field at Kule Loklo, making it challenging for some to navigate between the exhibit's structures in a wheelchair or on crutches. There are no accessible restrooms. Inquire at Bear Valley Visitor Center for more information on accessing Kule Loklo.
