There’s a visitors’ center at the Hardman farm,. The previous answer is correct. From the parking lot you walk down several sets of stairs or on a handicapped sloped ramp. There is also some walking on the tour and there are stairs in the house. If you want to walk the Heritage trail it is free and starts at the visitor center. It is paved with concrete and about a mile long. It would be fine for a stroller or wheelchair as it’s flat and wide.
Is the farm open during the week without taking a tour, or just Thursday through Sunday? I was wondering if we could access the trail into Helen.

When we were there in June, the trail was closed due to flooding and washouts. Not sure what the status is at this time. You might want to give them a call. The site is only open …
When we were there in June, the trail was closed due to flooding and washouts. Not sure what the status is at this time. You might want to give them a call. The site is only open Thursday thru Sunday. You can access the grounds and visitor center without taking the tour, but there is a $6 charge to access the grounds.
