Accessibility at Capes Foundation Experiences

Capes Foundation experiences are set within some of the South West’s most unique natural and heritage environments, from forest trails and caves to lighthouses and treetop adventures.

Each site is unique, and accessibility varies. Many locations offer accessible parking, step-free access to ticket offices, and accessible toilets. However, due to the natural and historical character of some sites, certain experiences may include:

  • Uneven surfaces, stairs or confined spaces
  • Natural trails with compacted gravel or limestone surfaces
  • Activities that require a level of physical independence
  • Limited wheelchair access beyond key entry points at various sites

See our Visitor Access Guides for accessibility information for each experience.

If you have any questions about access or would like to talk through your visit in advance, our team is happy to help. Call us on (08) 9757 7411 or email [email protected].

Companion Cards

Carer and Companion Card holders

We offer complimentary admission for a carer or companion accompanying a guest with a valid Companion Card.

As some of our experiences have limited capacity, we recommend booking in advance to ensure a place for you and your companion on your preferred tours.
