Park Güell

The park contains numerous interesting elements that can be touched, such as: the salamander covered in trencadís found on the main staircase; the large bench, also in trencadís, that delimits the entire perimeter of the square; the Doric-style columns of the hypostyle hall; the iron grilles in the shape of a butterfly; etc. It is a pleasant park to walk in where you can enjoy nature and architecture, as well as its sounds (water from the fountains, birds, some musical performances with very good acoustics) and smells of the diverse vegetation. It has a recreation area for dogs in the Forest Zone. It is recommended to use the official park application: "Park Güell Visita Inclusiva". https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.barcelona.parkguellvisitainclusiva A free tool for iOS and Android that offers information adapted to people with sensory needs.

It is recommended that people in wheelchairs be accompanied, as Park Güell is located on a hill and therefore has some steep slopes. It is also advisable to access the park through the entrance located on the Carmel Road. Although the Monumental Zone of Park Güell has some architectural barriers, there are alternative routes that allow a very complete visit of the park. See map of the adapted route: https://parkguell.barcelona/sites/default/files/mobilitat/mobilitat-CAT.jpg Park Güell has wheelchairs on loan upon prior request. If necessary, the request must be made by email to parkguell@bsmsa.cat The parking lot for tourist coaches (located on the Carmel Road) has 3 free parking spaces for people with reduced mobility and an accredited vehicle. There is a parking area for taxis, for parking and unparking at the entrance to Carmel (Carmel, 23). At the foot of the main steps are the shop and toilets. Each toilet cluster has adapted cubicles. In this area are the two entrance pavilions, which can be visited, although the existence of steps and the small size make these pavilions inaccessible to people in wheelchairs. The Gaudí House-Museum, which is located inside the park, is accessed via a stone ramp that varies between 12 and 14%. Although it is not accessible, it can be seen from the outside.

It is recommended to use the official park application: "Park Güell Visita Inclusiva", which offers interactive maps, audio guides, videos and routes adapted to cognitive needs. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.barcelona.parkguellvisitainclusiva
