One man’s mission to bring his disabled father on a hiking trip led to an innovative wheelchair and an organization that brings the disabled a unique chance to take trips in nature.

For Omer Zur, the fact that his dad has been using a wheelchair ever since sustaining grave injuries during his military service was no reason for him not to go on a post-army hiking trip in 2008, albeit somewhat belatedly.

In designing this wheelchair for off-road use, they considered not only the rough terrain but also the user experience of both the rider and the escort who would be pushing or pulling the Trekker. The finished product, Zur says, is “very passable and creates the best hiking experience for everyone taking part.”
