The Hostel is located about 10 minutes outside Barcelona
by train (Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat de Catalunya) in the mountains
and the forest park of Collserola. The hostel can accommodate up to 180
people at any one time and has dormitories for 4 – 10 people. The
entire hostel has been designed with disabled people in mind, in
fact 99% of the people which work at the InOut have some
form of disability. The InOut is broken into two buildings, the lower building consists of the main reception, a sitting room and dormitories. The InOut favour placing wheelchair users in this building as there is no need to use a lift to get to the domitories and therefore all exits are at ground level in the unlikely event of an emergency. The upper building has the restaurant, bar and sun terrace on the ground level with a lift to the upper floors where the dormitories are situated. |
The majority of the dormitories have an ensuite bathroom which has a WC
with grab rails and a level access shower. The sinks also have
ample space below them for wheelchair users to enter with ease. This is the ideal place for people that want the day time hustle and bustle of the city but during the evenings would like to relax in the peaceful green suburbs. It is also an alternative for those that wish to combine their city break with nature or rambling through the forests. Through AccessibleBarcelona’s sister site accessiblesport.com disabled people can arrange to partake in mountain biking using specially adapted trikes along with their able bodied family or friends. This is also an excellent location for larger groups of disabled people or school groups which may have special requirements. |
