Caravanning of people with reduced mobility
Caravanning tourism is an increasingly popular way of getting to know the world. It can also be an ideal leisure option for people who are not completely physically fit - it is only a matter of proper organization and equipment of both the motorhome and the camping.
According to the opinion of the campsite owners, adapting the area to the needs of disabled people may take even several seasons (especially with limited financial resources). However, those that have all the amenities are an investment that pays for itself very quickly. Most often they are located on flat or slightly sloping terrain. They have ramps to restaurants and bars with the appropriate width of the entrance door, while in the rooms there are low handrails and handles for people on wheelchairs . When it comes to campsites in Poland, some of them offer professional nursing care during the summer season. On their premises you can find a hardened sports ground, a place for preparing a barbecue or bonfire, some camps also have bars with billiards, swimming pools and other attractions.
Disabled-friendly camping
For people with disabilities who love traveling, it is much easier to find such campsites abroad. Especially recommended are places in the Scandinavian countries where the owners offer specially designated pitches for disabled guests. In Scandinavian camps, fully adapted to the needs of people with mobility impairments are not only bathrooms and toilets, but also restaurants, swimming pools, driveways to shops, and even to the beach. Beach rides are also standard in Italy and France.
However, in the motorhome used by a disabled person, you can install a special lift that allows them to get inside the vehicle. There are already models of motorhomes adapted to the needs of such travelers. The width of the entrance door is adjusted to the dimensions of the trolley, and there are no thresholds along the entire length of the interior. In the absence of funds to buy such a motorhome, you can install numerous handles, handrails and supports, which will significantly increase the comfort of the traveler.
There are no reasons why people with disabilities should give up exploring the world. After finding a suitable campsite, they can enjoy traveling as much as other tourists.
