Jupiter Artland is a 120-acre site and it takes approximately two hours to walk around the entire collection. Our site is a natural woodland area, which can be uneven underfoot.

There are paths leading around the entire site, which are suitable for most outdoor wheelchair users. However, as they are not tarmac paths they can be susceptible to extreme weather conditions.

Due to the positioning of the artworks, some paths don’t go right up to each sculpture, instead providing a view of each piece (with some exceptions). We recommend sensible footwear is worn in all conditions as some visitors may find some areas difficult to access.

The café and Steadings galleries are both fully wheelchair accessible via a ramp.

There is step-free access to the Ballroom Garden via the terrace in the Steadings area and wheelchair access to the Ballroom Gallery via a ramp.

Free touch tours and access for blind and visually impaired groups can be organised through the learning team. For more information, please contact [email protected]
