Here are 5 interesting facts about Matterhorn Bobsleds at Disneyland Resort.
1. Ride twice! You can choose between the Fantasyland or the Tomorrowland side of the mountain, each having their own queue and their own unique views. So ride this twice and it is a different experience each time.
2. Shorter wait time. There is a single rider line that offers shorter wait times if you are willing to split your party into separate ride vehicles. It is located on the Fantasyland side and you will need to ask a Cast Member to direct you to it.
3. Best choice for kids. The Fantasyland Side has shallow dips, graceful turns and better views. It is the best choice for kids.
4. There is a basketball half-court inside. This has fascinated Disney fans for years. Located inside near the top of the mountain is said to be a basketball half-court where the mountain climbers that can sometimes be seen scaling the mountain could play between climbs. It is said that the internal access to the mountain is locked for safety reasons, so the court is only accessible to the climbers.
5. Dumbo Flies from the Matterhorn to the Castle. During the summer, Dumbo and Tinkerbell can both be seen flying from the Matterhorn to the Castle during the fireworks celebration. They each fly at separate times during the performance, so make sure you grab a seat where this area is clearly visible.
