Date of visit: November 2014

I have experience of challenges around: seeing

Overall Rating

The city walls are very old and have narrow steps, but they also have a ramp which gives access to a large section of the walls for wheelchair users, I'm not sure how well a mobility scooter or powerchair would cope with some of the steep gradients above the city gates. .

Disabled Access In and Around

You'll find ramp access to the city walls at Bank Place directly across from the Metro Bar. Bank Place is just on the left after passing under Shipquay Gate approaching from the direction of the Guildhall. Steps on some sections of the walls are steep so you need to be careful if you are visually impaired.

Parking & Transport

There is on street parking close to the section of the walls with wheelchair access. The bus station is a few minutes walk from the city walls.

Additional Information

You can get some nice views over Guildhall Square to the Peace Bridge across the river Foyle from the wheelchair accessible section of the city walls.
