Schliersee: Internet Compass for disabled people

"Kompass", an information page in the internet, provides information on offers and facilities suitable for disabled people at Lake Schliersee in Upper Bavaria. The rating is based on experiences made by people with disabilities. The information are constantly updated and can be called up under www.behindertenkompass.de
For example, you can easily go along Lake Schliersee by wheelchair. The lake is handicap accessible via a pier leading to a lifting aid for wheelchair users. The "Inselrestaurant" is barrier-free. Hand bikes can be rented in town, so that people with walking disabilities can explore the area along bike paths. A map showing suitable paths is available at the spa administration (Kuramt). Winter sports enthousiasts with disabilities can enjoy well prepared slopes at Spitzigsee ski resort, which is nearby. During the cold season, you will see numerous mono skiers racing down the slopes.
