Ghent (Gent) is widely regarded as an increasingly accessible destination for disabled travellers, with local authorities actively improving facilities and visitor information. The city has produced accessibility brochures and mapped walking routes through the historic centre that minimise obstacles and highlight accessible toilets, accommodation and attractions. Many major sights are included on these routes, such as Gravensteen, the medieval towers overlooking the city, and the riverfront area of Graslei. Special initiatives also support visitors with sensory impairments, including tactile displays, audio descriptions and sign-language videos for key monuments. Wheelchairs can be borrowed from the tourist office, and some museums provide lifts, adapted toilets and assistance-dog access. Ghent’s accessible routes, inclusive cultural programmes and well-signposted facilities make it a welcoming destination for disabled travellers.
