Guests With Special Needs

Foreign visitors who are in possession of an equivalent disability ID issued in their country of origin can also park on the disabled parking spaces. Marked parking near exits and elevators is available. Place the Disabled Badge inside the rear window or any other visible spot.

A phone call to the SBB Call Center Handicap at the number provided below one hour before the train is due to leave is all that is needed for a customer with impaired mobility to receive help getting on or off a train at any of the 160 suitably equipped stations on the Swiss rail network.

Some hotels, group accommodation and holiday homes cater to physically challenged persons and offer wheelchair-accessible rooms and facilities.

Many scenic excursions are well-suited for persons in wheelchairs. There are also many cable-cars, boats and funiculars that are wheelchair-accessible.

Travellers in a wheelchair or with impaired mobility may find the web site of Mobility International Switzerland (MIS) to be of interest.
