Accessible tourism

Accessible stay in the Gavarnie Valleys 

The Tourist Offices of the Argelès-Gazost Valley, Gèdre and Val d’Azun have all obtained the “ Accessible tourism » for the reception of the 4 deficiencies; hearing disability, visual disability, motor disability and mental disability. 

The staff of these 3 Tourist Offices are therefore aware and trained to welcome people with disabilities and provide our customers with documentation adapted to visual and mental disabilities on request. The information desks are equipped with a hearing amplifier and the advisors are trained in the basics of French Sign Language (LSF). The premises have been designed to accommodate all types of visual audiences thanks to displays, lighting and a laid out pathway. Parking spaces for people with disabilities are located near the Tourist Offices.
