What you wish you knew before you experienced it

Before hopping on this trek, there are a few factors to consider. If you’re carrying extra gear such as backpacks or purses, you can store them in the locker area near the attraction for a fee, or stow them on the opposite side of the loading platform during boarding and retrieve them after your adventure concludes.

Additionally, be aware that this attraction includes dark portions with strobing effects, which might be uncomfortable for those sensitive to such stimuli.

How scary is Penguin Trek?

We rate Penguin Trek 2 out of 5 pebbles for its fear factor. This ride is considered family-friendly; however, those who prefer to avoid launches (of which there are two) might want to opt-out. You can wait for your family near the gift shop or the penguin exhibit instead.
