When it comes to planning your Disney World trip, we try to make sure you have the best information possible for you and your family.
You must be this tall to ride.
And that includes details about what you might need to know about if you have kids, too. For example, what attractions can your kids get on while you’re visiting the most magical place on Earth? So we’ve put together a guide to give you an idea of what the height requirements are for some of Disney World’s most thrilling rides.
Magic Kingdom
We’ll start with the shortest height requirements to the tallest. Over in Storybook Circus is Barnstormer, probably one of the most kid-friendly roller coasters at Disney World. To ride this, guests must be 35 inches (89 centimeters or taller). In Fantasyland, guests must be 38 inches (97 centimeters) or taller to ride Seven Dwarfs Mine Train.

The OTHER mine train, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad requires guests to be at least 40 inches (102 centimeters) tall. The same goes for Splash Mountain, too.

The other mountain, though, Space Mountain, requires guests to be at least 44 inches (113) centimeters tall — this is the tallest height requirement in Magic Kingdom.

EPCOT
The good news is that one of EPCOT’s most popular rides, Frozen Ever After, doesn’t have a height limit — any child can get on this attraction. But Test Track has a height requirement of 40 inches (102 centimeters) or taller, so keep that in mind if your child wants to ride it.

Please remember that these height requirements are in place to keep your child safe. If your child doesn’t meet the height requirements, please do not complain to Cast Members about it, and whatever you do, don’t try to cheat the system. They’ll get there eventually, and hey, it’s yet another excuse to keep planning trips to Disney World, right?
