The 1992 Olympic games in Barcelona forced the city to improve access dramatically, both for the Paralympics athletes and for disabled visitors. As a result, Barcelona is now one of the most disabled-friendly cities in Europe.
Travel to Barcelona
The easiest way to reach Barcelona is by flying. Barcelona airport is 12 km from the city centre and from here you can catch a fast accessible shuttle bus (Aerobus). It leaves every 15 minutes and takes 30 minutes to reach the city centre.
There are fast luxury overnight trains from Paris to Barcelona with TrenHotel, but these are unfortunately not accessible to wheelchair users. Ambulant disabled travellers who wish to travel by train should take the Eurostar to Paris, transfer to Paris's Austerlitz station, then take the overnight train from there. You will arrive in Barcelona at around 8am.
