Hiking. Water. Discovery.
Accessible services in the Bergisches Land region
The Bergisches Land region doesn't get its name directly from its "mountains," but from the Counts of Berg. However, anyone traveling here will discover that it can be quite hilly. Since not everyone can or wants to tackle so many meters of elevation gain, the Bergisches Land also offers hiking trails and destinations for those seeking a more leisurely experience.
- Wheelchair users and people with disabilities
- Seniors and older guests
- People using a walker or walking aid
- Families with and without strollers.
Highlights include the barrier-free "Bergische Komfortspazierweg" (Bergisch Comfort Walk) in Altenberg, the hot air balloon with its accessible basket, and the barrier-free bathing area at the Bruchtalsperre reservoir. But the Bergisches Land region also offers many other certified, barrier-free attractions and accommodations. Here, you can not only learn fascinating facts about the region, but also participate in activities, test your limits, or simply relax and enjoy a meal. These businesses have also been certified with the "Travel for All" seal of approval, ensuring you have every comfort – so nothing stands in the way of your trip to the Bergisches Land.
