When you go online to book your campsite, you might filter by sites that are dog-friendly, or campgrounds that allow campfires. But when you’re a person with a disability, there’s a lot more to consider. Is there a ramp to the bathroom? A wheelchair-accessible shower? Is the campsite level, or are there steps between the parking spot and the campsite?
The information most people with disabilities need to feel comfortable booking outdoor travel is simply not available. According to a survey by Pitchup.com, a booking engine for camping and glamping sites in 67 countries, 83 percent of respondents avoid outdoor travel completely due to accessibility issues.
