The Finnish Nature Centre Haltia is a highly accessible building. The front door opens automatically, although there were some issues with it during our visit. There is plenty of space to move indoors and the exhibition areas are spacious. The multi-sensory experience is arranged magnificently and the signs and touch panels can be reached in a wheelchair. The main exhibition area has plenty of folding chairs on the wall if you want to sit down to rest. There are also fixed seats in the exhibition area. The lobby has a spacious, accessible toilet with folding support handles around the toilet seat fixed to the wall. There is also a slightly smaller accessible toilet upstairs next to the restaurant. The Haltia auditorium and conference rooms are also accessible and the private sauna that can be reserved is also accessible in a wheeled shower chair, based on my previous experiences.

It is very easy to navigate EMMA’s spacious, accessible premises in a wheelchair. The artworks are on display at a suitable height for wheelchair users and I was able to reach the signs with touch panels easily. There was an accessible, roomy toilet on both floors I visited. If you need an assistant to accompany you, they can get in for free. There are a wide variety of different types of tickets, so be sure to check if you are eligible for a discount. Both the EMMA and WeeGee websites have comprehensive information about accessibility and the WeeGee website has photos that provide valuable additional information.
