Winter in an off road wheelchair

Winter continues in the Northern Hemisphere, and with it the desire to stay warm by the fire. For the courageous who like to get out in all weathers, Vipamat has put together a list of winter activities, tested and approved by our super users and their off road wheelchair !

 

Snow wheelchair : activities to enjoy the snowflakes

If you’re close to the mountains or the snow, there are plenty of possibilities :

  • Wheelchair rides on the snow

With the Hippocampe wheelchair, enjoy the sound of snow under your skis ( available as an option on the hippocampe all terrain wheelchair). A way to enjoy the snow away from the slopes, with family and friends.

  • Wheelchair sled dog

In Japan, Ata tours offers trips adapted to world standards for people with special needs. The agency has even tested the vipamat hippocampe all terrain wheelchair in a sled, pulled by dogs over the snow. An unforgettable experience for all !

Wheelchair and snowman

A Snowman:
You have snow but you are in town ? Then take advantage of the weather to make a snowman. No matter what your age, a snowman is a good time to share, which delights young and old alike. And with its double wheels, the Hippocampe is a wheelchair that can be used on light snow.

Wheelchair-accessible ride

If you’re further away from snowy landscapes, walks on the beach, in town or in the forest are also popular with many of our users.

  • A walk by the sea:

You may not know it, but Vipamat is a company based in Brittany, near the sea, and we enjoy the sea all year round ! Even when the weather’s not great, going out with Hippocampe Beach is the ideal way to see the seashore in winter and admire the waves the day after a storm.

  • Getting around town in a wheelchair

For city walks, the all terrain wheelchair can also be your partner, on roads, cobblestones or tourist sites such as castles and protected parks.
