Sharing good news is the part of our work we enjoy most! After many months of preparation, the day has finally come when we can invite you to the official website of the "The Mountains Connect Us" project! This website is unique because what you'll find here was created thanks to your involvement: laczanasgory.pl

 

This colorful, horizontal photograph shows a large group of people of various ages walking along a wide mountain path. At the front of the group are two women pulling a three-wheeled stroller with a young boy in it. A man is pushing the stroller behind them. Beside them, another man is pushing a stroller, with two children in it. The group also includes parents with baby carriers on their backs, small children, and dogs.

When we began organizing mountain trips four years ago, we tentatively asked for your trust. You gave us that trust a hundredfold, not only by joining us in such large numbers, but also by responding to other ideas, both bold and adventurous. You also pointed us in the direction we should take to make the mountains truly accessible to you.

 

One reason they weren't available was the lack of information about where to go, which routes were wheelchair-accessible, which were easier, and which were more physically demanding. We explored mountain trails together, along with families and people with disabilities who volunteered as testers, and we prepared descriptions of 15 routes in the Sudetes that are wheelchair-accessible.

 

The website they are on will be a place where you can find information about the many events, initiatives, and activities we are preparing for you and us, as well as the organizations and institutions we work with. We promise to continually work on expanding it, adding new routes and information that may be of interest to you.

 

We invite you to use it and are curious about your feedback. We hope that TOGETHER we can continue to develop social tourism!
