Lake Winnipesaukee Cruises with a Wheelchair or Scooter

A boat cruise is one of the best ways for someone with limited mobility to see Lake Winnipesaukee. You sit, the scenery moves past and there is no hiking. Cruises leave from several towns around the lake, including Weirs Beach and Wolfeboro.

Ask before you book

• Is the boarding ramp suitable for a wheelchair or scooter?
• Which decks are reachable without stairs?
• Is there an accessible restroom on board?

Best equipment

A transport chair is slim and easy to maneuver on deck. Ask the operator about scooters before bringing one.

Choosing a cruise

Larger boats tend to have wider decks and more room for a chair, while small tour boats are more intimate but harder to move around on. If seasickness is a worry, the lake is far calmer than the ocean, which makes it a gentle first boat trip for older travelers.

On the dock

Docks move with the water level and can have a slope or a gap at the boarding point. Crew are usually happy to help steady a chair. A transport chair with a companion is easiest here, since the crew can lift it if needed. Save the scooter for the town afterward.

After the cruise

Weirs Beach has a boardwalk and arcades by the dock. Wolfeboro has a flat downtown along the water. Both are pleasant spots for an easy stroll before the drive home.
