Holidays without barriers in Maremma

"Sea for everyone" is the project of the municipality of Grosseto that offers people with motor disabilities a free spot for a week, with beach umbrella, deck chair and sunbed, in some beach resorts along the coast.

The requirements to access the service are a 100% recognized disability or a declaration of serious disability according to law 104. Requests may also be submitted by non-residents in the municipal area. No more than two accompanying family members or friends may be admitted to the granted station.

At this link you can consult the resorts that are participating in the project.

15 partners and 5 regions including Tuscany collaborated in the European Gritaccess project aimed at creating a Great Tyrrhenian Route that prioritizes accessibility to the naturalistic and cultural heritage with new communication technologies. One of the experimental actions, carried out by the municipality of Grosseto together with the Tuscany Region, concerns the identification of physical and virtual accessibility paths. The map was created by probing the quality of the soil to reveal the level of practicability for tourists who travel by wheelchair or scooter and provides the description of different itineraries to reach and travel through the city center, highlighting the points of historic interest in Grosseto. By consulting it, we find the recommended route to reach the city center from the railway station, the walk on the Medici walls and the city route to visit, including the Archaeological Museum and the Cathedral. Easily accessible routes (for pushed wheelchairs, electric-powered chair, electric hand-cycle, electric scooter and wheelchair segway) are marked in green; while easily accessible sections with electric-powered supports are marked in yellow, but with some difficulties for hand-pushed wheelchairs.
