Access for visitors with reduced mobility

The Eiffel Tower offers reserved access at the pillars to spare visitors with reduced mobility the steps and turnstiles. The first and second levels are reachable by elevator, which is roomy enough to accommodate wheelchairs. For safety reasons, only the very summit remains inaccessible, principally because of emergency evacuation requirements.
 

Pleasant walks around the monument

If time allows, wander through the Trocadéro gardens, where the Warsaw Fountain frames some of the finest views of the tower. The paths of the Champ de Mars are equally rewarding and offer wide, open perspectives of the Iron Lady. On a rainy day, the Maison de la Culture du Japon and the Quai Branly Museum make excellent nearby alternatives.
