| Accessible Alpine Tourism | | The Alpine Shire is a partner in the “Alpine Accessibility Toolkit”, a program coordinated by Disabled WinterSport Australia with the help of a grant from the Australian Government (AusIndustry) under the Australian Tourism Development Program. The toolkit was developed as a practical resource for tourism businesses in the alpine region and provides important information to help businesses become “accessibility friendly”.
People with access requirements include:
* those with young children in prams,
* seniors with mobility requirements,
* people with permanent or temporary disabilities.
Their access requirements may include:
* Physical / Mobility,
* Hearing,
* Vision,
* Cognitive.
The toolkit provides fact sheets, tips, tools, techniques and websites. For more information, or to obtain your copy of the toolkit, please contact Council’s Tourism department on (03) 5755 0555, or call in at one of our Visitor Information Centres.
Please note though, as there is no Local, State or Federal criteria for being “accessible friendly”, it is up to the individual to make an informed decision based on the information provided.
More information can be found at www.visitvictoria.com.au and clicking on the link "Accessible Victoria" on the left hand menu.
