Salt Pond Braille Trail Etc – Cape Cod National Seashore Eastham MA

Sometimes it’s really neat to go somewhere so different from where you live that even the plants are unfamiliar. That was what our last trip to Cape Cod was like.

Salt marshes are such unique and interesting places full of gorgeous views and neat wildlife. But this place was special in an even more inspiring way for there was a short trail at the beginning that was dedicated to the blind. A rope provided guidance down a series of small steps, knots in the rope allowed for the hikers know there was something more to experiance – usually a braille plaque next to something worth feeling – perhaps the trunk of a tree or something else nature-y.

I’m not blind so I don’t really know how user friendly or helpful this trail was but I did find the very idea of it absolutely innovative.

Beyond the braille trail there were other easy trails that meandered for quite a ways and showed us absolutely gorgeous views. It was a very pleasant day and I’d suggest this place to others looking for a peaceful stroll.
