Tourism and disability

Created in 2001, the “Tourism & Handicap” Label aims to provide reliable, descriptive and objective information on the accessibility of tourist sites and facilities, taking into account the 4 types of disabilities (hearing, mental, motor and visual) and to develop an adapted tourist offer.

The tourist sites and services that have obtained the Tourism and Disability Label are tourist sites OPEN TO ALL where everything is done so that everyone can find their place, have a good vacation, enjoy visits and activities, entertainment and festivities, comfort of accommodation and quality of catering. When preparing your vacations, have the reflex to look for this symbol!

The Saint-Lary Tourist Office team is pleased to announce that it has obtained the Tourism Handicap label since February 2, 2016.
