Handicapped Accessibility

The main route of the Unity Village tour is handicapped-accessible, although not all areas of the Unity Village grounds are. For guided group tours, Unity needs advance notice of visitors in wheelchairs or those who have trouble walking or climbing stairs. With advance notice, the guided tour can be modified to avoid stairways and to begin at a more accessible location.

 

For self-guided tours, handicapped routes can be suggested at the Unity Village Bookstore.
