Once in the venue, spectators will take another accessible shuttle which will bring them to within approximately 90 metres of the accessible seating area.
We are committed to providing meaningful access and participation for people with a disability and welcome spectators with a disability to enjoy the 2010 Winter Games. View accessible features available on the venue.
Please be aware that there could be long waiting times to take the gondola or the shuttle. You may find it quicker to walk on the pathway.
