You can go to the salt mine in Wieliczka (next to Krakow) even if you’re disabled, on a wheelchair, have trouble hiking or are after a surgery.
You have to keep a few things in mind, though, like reserving a spot and joining the proper group.
There are 2 tourist routes: the main one and a new & more extreme miner’s route. People with disabilities can go only on the first one.
The information in this article was given to me directly from the Salt Mine call center on 20 Jan 2018.
Wieliczka’s Main Tourist Route for disabled people
The main Tourist Route is available for people with disabilities, but you have to sign up & reserve a spot beforehand to join a disabled group. This route goes from the “Danilowicza” Shaft.
If you have any (even foreign) documents acknowledging that you indeed are disabled, you can buy a cheaper ticket for yourself (and your caretaker, if you have one) for 69 zł (PLN). If you don’t have a document, you will be charged the full price of 89 zł (PLN).
