Being mobile and in the midst of events - Accessible travel in Brandenburg

Holidays should offer relaxation and recuperation and should under no circumstances cause unnecessary stress and particularly for people whose mobility is restricted. In Brandenburg, there are numerous tourist offers that particularly focus on people with a disability with regard to furnishings and service. For instance, Haus Rheinsberg is a four-star accommodation delightfully located by a lake, which concentrates completely on guests with a disability and is one of the largest and most modern hotels of this kind in Germany and unique nationwide. Accessible bathrooms and rooms is a matter of course, here. Spacious lifts, motor-operated doors and windows and room facilities, which make comfortable and stress-free living for wheelchair users possible to the smallest detail.

Also worth mentioning is Landhaus Seebeck, a country house in the Ruppiner Land. In the national competition “Willkommen im Urlaub – Familienzeit ohne Barrieren” (Welcome to your holiday – family time without any obstacles), it was awarded one of five gold medals assigned by the German Federal Ministry for Family, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth. Everything in these holiday flats will meet the requirements that you would expect on your holiday, whether you have a disability or not. All over the country, there are numerous other options for accessible accommodation, for travel and for enjoying one’s leisure time. Even a completely accessible holiday village is presently being built at Lindow/Klosterheide in the Ruppiner Land.

Being mobile and in the midst of events: you can experience and actively enjoy all the facets of the Brandenburg state.  Special offers of tours, outings and sports for people with a disability make holidays in Brandenburg an experience. Both the destinations for outings as well as the various ways of locomotion provide numerous options: from guided hikes, experiences in a canoe or carriage for people with a disability to a visit to the first accessible nature experience path, which has existed in the town and health resort of Betzig for a short time.
