Wheelchair users and people with reduced mobility are now given the unique opportunity to explore the unspoilt nature of Terhills, in Hoge Kempen National Park, even along unpaved trails, thanks to a wheelchair puller. This pioneering initiative is unique in the Benelux and reinforces Maasmechelen’s position as the ultimate nature recharge destination in the Euregio.
Reserve a wheelchair puller and choose whether to head out with or without a ranger. If it is your first time using a wheelchair puller, we recommend exploring the park together with a ranger. These experienced guides know the park inside out and ensure you can enjoy nature without a care. Along the way, they enthusiastically share their knowledge of the flora and fauna of Hoge Kempen National Park.
What are wheelchair pullers?
Until recently, wheelchair users often faced limitations when visiting Hoge Kempen National Park because of the unpaved paths. Thanks to the introduction of wheelchair pullers and specially adapted off-road wheelchairs, this has changed. A wheelchair puller is an electrically powered towing device on wheels that can be attached to a specially designed off-road wheelchair. This enables users to tackle even the most challenging trails and fully enjoy the beauty of nature.
Get ready for an unforgettable nature experience in Hoge Kempen National Park – an adventure awaits, regardless of your mobility limitations!
