Discover Space Mountain
Our tips:

- Look out for Hyperspace Mountain
- Boarding involves steps
Space Mountain
Space Mountain is Tomorrowland's roller coaster in the dark. You walk through a large, futuristic space station to Mission Control. There you board a sleek rocket for a flight to the furthest reaches of the universe.
The concept
Your mission: conquer Space Mountain. Your rocket slowly climbs through a swirling solar field as it builds up power. Then you plunge through a spectacular spiral nebula. Sound and music make it even more intense. Because it's so dark, every bend feels like a surprise.
The Experience
Once the countdown is over, hold on tight. You shoot forward into the endless darkness as your rocket twists and turns in every direction. It gets faster and faster, and you feel the g-forces in the bends. Every now and then, the ride becomes Hyperspace Mountain. You then fly alongside New Republic X-wings in a battle against TIE fighters and a Star Destroyer.
Discover Space Mountain
Ride as a Single Rider
Space Mountain has a Single Rider queue. Handy if you don't mind sitting separately.
Look out for Hyperspace Mountain
Every now and then, Space Mountain turns into Hyperspace Mountain for a limited time, with a Star Wars space battle.
Boarding involves steps
You need to climb a few steps when boarding and leaving the ride. On request, there is a separate boarding area with a transfer seat.
Visitor information
You must be at least 102 cm (40 inches) tall. Children under 7 must be accompanied by someone aged 14 or over. Disney advises against riding if you have high blood pressure, heart, back or neck problems or motion sickness, and for pregnant women. Due to the shape of the seats and restraints, not all body types can ride. Rider Switch is available: whoever waits with a child can ride afterwards without queuing again (maximum two people). The attraction is part of Lightning Lane Multi Pass and has a Single Rider queue.
A journey through the universe
Space Mountain is one of the great classics of Disneyland Park. Are you a Star Wars fan? Then check whether Hyperspace Mountain is running during your visit.
