Summary

A groundbreaking approach to accessible tourism has been developed for Cáceres, a UNESCO World Heritage Site renowned for its monumental architecture and cultural significance. The study proposes targeted measures to enhance accessibility across the city's diverse topographical challenges, including irregular pavements and steep terrain, thereby enabling more inclusive visitation for individuals with varying mobility needs—such as those using wheelchairs, or experiencing visual, auditory, or cognitive impairments. These improvements prioritize universal design principles, ensuring that accessibility benefits not only people with disabilities but also the broader public, aligning with the site's heritage value while addressing practical barriers to tourism.
