Accessibility
We want this guide to be useful to everyone. Unfortunately we have not been able to confirm a step-free route to any viewpoint, or accessible toilets. The ground is uneven, often wet and sometimes steep. If you use a wheelchair or have limited mobility, please ask locally, and if you have visited, tell us what you found so we can help others.
