Hiccup's Wing Gliders
Hiccup's Wing Gliders is the roller coaster of How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk. Hiccup has built a new flying machine and you get to test it. The ride is exciting enough for adults and suitable for children from 1.02 metres.
The concept
Isle of Berk is the Viking village from the films, where Vikings and dragons live side by side. Out of Hiccup's workshop comes his latest invention: a flying machine with wings that lets you soar through the air like a dragon. Along the way you'll meet Hiccup and Toothless.
The Experience
The flying machine launches you into the air and then swoops over the water of the lagoon, past rocks and Viking houses. You dive and soar, with gorgeous views of the village. It's a proper roller coaster, but very doable for families.

Look for the dragon egg
Beside the track lies a giant Gronckle egg. According to Universal, the shell weighs as much as 84 hen's eggs.
Lockers
There are lockers for your bag at the attraction (possibly for a fee).
Sit at the front
At the front you get the best view over the lagoon and the Mead Hall.
Visitor information
You must be at least 1.02 metres tall. With a Universal Express Pass (sold separately) you skip the regular queue. Note: the free Express Unlimited offered by a number of Universal hotels is not valid at Epic Universe.
Flying like a dragon
Hiccup's Wing Gliders is one of the best family coasters in Orlando. After the ride, you can meet Hiccup and Toothless at the Haddock Paddock or watch the show The Untrainable Dragon.
