Accessibility

This page is created for visitors who would like an overview of accessibility in Røros and Østerdalen – whether you are travelling with a wheelchair, have reduced mobility, are travelling with a stroller, or have other accessibility needs.
Needs and abilities vary from person to person. The information on this page primarily focuses on mobility challenges, as wheelchair accessibility often covers many other needs as well.
 

Things to be aware of

Røros is a historic mining town and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Many buildings and outdoor areas are protected.

As a result, some locations may include:

• Steps

• Thresholds

• Narrow doorways

• Uneven surfaces

It is therefore not possible to fully adapt all buildings. Nevertheless, many experiences and venues remain accessible.
We are continuously working to expand and update this content as more accessibility information becomes available from our partners.
