Every Ride with a Height Restriction at Disney World
Do you remember the first time you were tall enough to ride a big ride at Disney World? I bet it was a pretty exciting moment for you — walking up to the “you must be this tall” marker and finally reaching the height requirement.
Disney has height restrictions in place to keep kids safe on all of their attractions, so it’s VERY important not to try and get around these restrictions with things like taller shoes or something. Just listen to Chris Hemsworth’s experience with his kid at Disney California Adventure Park to understand why (the story starts around the 10:22 minute mark).
So, instead of you having to walk around to each ride and see if your kids are tall enough, we’ve got a full list of all the height requirements right here! It’s probably a good idea to go ahead and measure the height of your kids right before your trip and highlight the ones they can and cannot go on.
