Asheville’s “We’ve Got Gear” isn’t just a rental shop—it’s a gateway to adventure tailored to the needs of families and explorers requiring accessible equipment. This spot makes the outdoors approachable, breaking down barriers that often complicate trips involving wheelchairs, strollers, or young children.

Located near Asheville’s vibrant core, We’ve Got Gear offers a range of equipment engineered for practicality and comfort. Whether it’s adaptive hiking chairs that handle uneven terrain with ease, stroller-friendly backpacks for mountain trails, or child-sized camping gear, they ensure no one misses out on the wild call of the Blue Ridge. The rental process is straightforward, with staff ready to advise on gear selection based on your group’s dynamics and the trail conditions ahead.

The trails you’ll likely explore from here vary in length and challenge, but are designed to accommodate the equipment and abilities We’ve Got Gear supports. Imagine a 3-mile forest trail with a modest 400-foot elevation change, where the earth beneath is firm enough for wheeled mobility but still alive—roots stretching out like old hands, leaves whispering underfoot. The forest dares you to notice the sun slipping through overhead branches and the river ahead pushing forward past moss-covered stones.

Preparation is key: secure footwear with good traction for everyone, ensure you have hydration accessible within reach, and plan outings either early in the morning or late afternoon to avoid the midday heat. Weather in Asheville dances unpredictably, so packing layers from the gear rental can save your day.

Families will appreciate the practicality of lightweight tents, compact cooking tools, and seating that accommodates a wider range of body types and mobility aids. The gear here isn’t one-size-fits-all; it’s about fitting the adventure to your needs, respecting that the landscape is fiercely itself while inviting all to participate on its terms.

In sum, We’ve Got Gear acts as a bridge between readiness and exploration, giving you confidence to take on trails with thoughtful inclusivity in tow. It encourages you to meet the environment with respect—acknowledging the challenge, appreciating the sensory richness, and navigating the terrain with equipment that supports, not limits, your journey.
