Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is the “wildest ride in the wilderness!!” Located in FrontierLand, you board a speeding train through a haunted gold mine. There are no loop-de-loops on this coaster-type attraction, but there are fast banks, mild drops, and special effects in the dark! It’s a blast to ride!
Must be 40 in (102 cm) or taller to ride.

The newest coaster in Magic Kingdom, Seven Dwarves Mine Train, is located in New Fantasyland! It is an extremely popular attraction with wait times well over one hour on busy day! Thus, I suggest you get your FastPass+ reservations locked in. The Seven Dwarves Mine Train has swaying train cars that make for an incredibly smooth ride. The coaster is also broken into two parts with a dark ride experience through the diamond mines. I happen to love that part! The animatronics are a lot of fun to watch! You’ll certainly feel the wind in your hair as you zoom around the hairpin turns and zip down the drops! Just watch out for that wicked witch…
Must be 38 in (97 cm) or taller to ride.

I. LOVE. SPACE. MOUNTAIN. Is it the most intense coaster experience, no. However, there is something so magical and fun about riding this coaster in the dark with the twinkling stars and amazing soundtrack! My husband and I laugh like little kids throughout the entire ride. There are drops and hairpin turns that are quite unexpected since you can’t see the track in the dark! This is a must-do for every trip.
Must be 44 in (113 cm) or taller to ride.
