Andorra: An inclusive tourism destination


Andorra is committed to the equality of all people

To provide everyone with universal access and a better holiday experience, Andorra offers a whole series of options adapted to people with sensory and physical disabilities that provide an independent, easy and safe introduction to our cultural and natural heritage.

 


Universally accessible tourist content

This easy-to-use app is one of the systems available at more than a hundred tourist attractions, such as monuments, sculptures, viewpoints, etc. Just by scanning the Parl’App QR code with your mobile camera, you will have instant access to detailed and comprehensive information, either in sign language or read by a narrator in one of four different available languages (Catalan, Spanish, French and English). In addition, the signs where you will find the QR codes have information in braille.

 

Nature en route: Ecotourism viewpoints and explanatory panels

As you are well aware by now, much of Andorra is covered in nature. That is why, continuing with our efforts to bring our culture and, especially, our natural surroundings closer to you, we have adapted the viewpoint signs and explanatory panels so you that you can discover the native flora and fauna and surrounding mountains, peaks and lakes. On each panel, you will find the information written in braille and an embossed outline of the area's mountains, plants and animals. The panels also feature a QR code, which you can use to access the information in the form of an audio guide (in four languages) and in sign language. All the panels are adapted to streamline access for people with reduced mobility.

Hiking with Blind Explorer

Blind Explorer is another innovative proposal intended for people with visual impairment. This technological solution will enable you to go hiking more independently, conveniently and safely.

 

By using its exclusive 3D-sound-emitting geolocation system, you can follow a range of routes without being so dependent on other people. This application features around twenty routes in Andorra.


Les Fonts-Engolasters circuit, the first adapted route

The Les Fonts-Engolasters circuit is nearly 3 km long, takes just over an hour and a half and runs through an area of nature adapted for people with visual impairment. The route was designed with the advice of ONCE (the Spanish National Organisation of the Blind) and produced using special materials with different textures and techniques, which will help you to perceive and anticipate any possible obstacles along the way. The route is also adapted to people with reduced mobility. Natural springs such as Les Molleres, the Font de la Closa and others are to be found all along it.

In Andorra, we work every day to improve the country's inclusive tourism offering and to provide a better experience for all our visitors. Come and discover everything we can do for you.

Because in Andorra, we are all equal.
