Accessibility FAQ’s
The park is set on some of the Isle of Wight’s most beautiful coastline atop 400” high cliffs. This means that the route around the site slopes in places, and some paths have a gradient of 1:5. Most of the park is accessible by wheelchair, but strong helpers should accompany those in manual wheelchairs who wish to visit all park areas.
Those using electric mobility scooters must ensure they are confident using the equipment and do not exceed its capabilities. Particular attention should be paid to the paths leading to and from Restricted Area 5, Cowboy Town & Snakes & Ladders, where gradients are likely to be at their steepest.
Coming soon! To ensure that all our guests can enjoy the park comfortably and safely, we are currently planning Accessibility Sessions. During these sessions, we may close off certain park areas, turn off the music and lift some of the usual requirements for a limited number of guests. Find more detail on these sessions on our accessibility page.
Guests who require additional assistance whilst visiting the park can claim free tickets or Frequent Visitor Passes for their carer(s). Blackgang Chine partners with Nimbus Disability, operators of the Access Card scheme, to assess and manage applications for our Essential Companion tickets. Click here for further information.
Unfortunately, we cannot provide wheelchairs or disability scooters for hire at the park.
We have a range of facilities available to help make park visits more suitable and comfortable for our disabled guests.
