Accessibility for Gardens Visitors

 

The Gardens of Golden Gate Park is committed to ensuring accessibility to everybody. If you or a member of your party requires accommodations, please contact us at info@sfbg.org before your visit to discuss your needs. Please note that making your request at least 5 business days before your visit will help ensure availability.

​

Caregivers:

 

A professional or family caregiver accompanying a visitor with disabilities will receive complimentary Garden admission. Service animals: Service animals are permitted throughout the Gardens. Service and support animals must, remain under control, and on leash or in a carrier unless free movement is required for service. Pets, including dogs, are not allowed in the Gardens.

 

Mobility Aids:

​

Mobility aids for those with disabilities are welcome at all Gardens, although due to the historic nature of the Gardens, some areas are not wheelchair accessible. Please check with the Visitor Experience staff for clarification on accessible routes. Any Power-Driven Mobility Device, such as electric wheelchairs, must be operated at a speed of surrounding pedestrian traffic.

 

Strollers:

 

 We ask guests at the Conservatory of Flowers and at the Japanese Tea Garden to park their strollers because of the narrow paths and spaces in these Gardens.
