Accessibility: Checked against sources
Current KTO records conflict. A detailed record modified September 3, 2026 and an Open Tourism improvement page describe accessible parking, step-free/ramped routes, wheelchair and stroller loans, accessible restrooms and tactile/audio guidance, while a separate current KTO destination checklist marks several of those facilities unavailable and reports an entrance step. Treat accessibility as source-conflicted and reconfirm directly if it is essential to the trip; the hillside-village route may require companion assistance even in the positive records.
