Learn-a-tag: leisure=fitness_station

Vum jgpacker matgedeelt de(n) 11. Januar 2015 op English.

Recently in Brazil, a number of cities started adding outdoor fitness stations in public parks. In my city only, there are around 20 of these. After looking for a tag to describe this feature, I found leisure=fitness_station.

Elderly fitness station

Adapted from the wiki page: > A fitness station is an outdoor facility with one or more exercise equipment. This is typically operated by a local government, and free to use for everyone. Often inside a fitness route or a park.

It has a good number of uses right now (1877), but my gut feeling tells me it’s not known as much as it could be.

Cheers, John

Certainly noticed several in Parque Centenario in Buenos Aires. There is also a very little used tag covering several of these leisure=outdoor_gym. In Switzerland and nearby there are specific trails with fitness stations located along the trail. There has been an ongoing project to map them for several years: ParscoursVita.

Many of these fitness stations are aimed at old people or people with disabilities. The latter is easier to tag, but I’m not sure we can tag the former. Any ideas?

@pizzaiolo I don’t think there is a tag for this right now, but I guess you could add elderly=yes. Be sure to add the name of the place, if available.
