Description of the facility

Kodeljevo Outdoor Swimming Pool is poorly accessible.

Access from the nearest LPP bus stop is poorly marked, with uneven pavement, shallow curbs, and bollards. People in wheelchairs must navigate via the bike path due to height obstacles. There is one adapted parking space near the entrance, but it is too small.

The swimming pool facilities are organized across the ground floor, an annex, and the outdoor area with pools. The main building has an accessible main entrance with level pavement and automatic sliding doors, with access to the reception desk and adapted restrooms, although the restrooms are locked. The café terrace is not accessible for wheelchair users. The annex has accessible restrooms with a shower, but there are no adapted changing cabinets. The outdoor pools, stands, and slides are not accessible, ramps for the disinfection pool are too short or improperly sloped, pools lack lifting devices, height differences are not bridged, and outdoor showers and green areas are inaccessible.
