Adventure Way: the land of Tangled and adventure

Adventure Way is one of the lands of Disney Adventure World (formerly Walt Disney Studios) in Disneyland Paris. Just past World Premiere Plaza, at the centre of the park, it links the entrance area to the immersive worlds, including World of Frozen and the future Pride Lands.

The land takes the form of a leafy promenade with a central walkway leading to Adventure Bay, a 3-hectare lake (70,000 m³) that forms the heart of the park. The landscaping includes 1,000 trees and 100,000 shrubs, spread across several smaller spaces: the Gazebo Garden, an English-style garden with statues of Peter Pan, Winnie the Pooh and Pongo with his puppies, which hosts the return of the Disney Music Festival, and the Toy Story Garden, a path linking Adventure Way to Toy Story Playland (Worlds of Pixar).

Adventure Way has two rides. Raiponce Tangled Spin is a family teacup-style ride based on Tangled: you board spinning gondolas beneath scenery inspired by the floating lanterns scene. The second, Wilderness Explorers Sky Swings, based on Up and designed as a swing ride, is due in 2027 opposite Raiponce Tangled Spin. It will take you into the world of the Wilderness Explorers, Russell’s band of adventurers.

For food, The Regal View Restaurant and Lounge offers table service with a panoramic view of Adventure Bay and a meal with Disney Princesses, alongside cafés and kiosks along the promenade. Shops along the way sell Disney and Pixar souvenirs.

Adventure Bay lake is the setting for the night-time water show Disney Cascade of Lights, which combines projections on the water, fountains and drones, and brings in characters from the Disney, Pixar and Marvel worlds (Moana, Mulan, Carl and Russell from Up, the Avengers). Character meet and greets (including Mickey) and live music add life to the promenade.

The land plays out as an adventure trail linking several Disney worlds. You follow in the footsteps of Rapunzel and Flynn Rider on their quest for adventure, and the walkway leads naturally to the kingdom of Arendelle (World of Frozen) and the Pixar world (Worlds of Pixar).

The common thread is travel and escape: Adventure Way works as a story-led transition between the big lands of Disney Adventure World.

The land in numbers, pulled together from across the site for a super quick visual summary.

Adventure Way is a brand-new land, created as part of the Disney Adventure World rebrand and opened on 29 March 2026. It is the first land in the world devoted entirely to Tangled and Up.

It is part of the park expansion plan announced in 2018 (Avengers Campus, a Frozen land and a Star Wars land). In 2024, the Star Wars area was replaced by a Lion King project, and Adventure Way and Adventure Bay were both confirmed as areas in their own right at the D23 Expo. Construction had begun in 2022. Designed by Walt Disney Imagineering, the land opened with Raiponce Tangled Spin, while the second ride (Wilderness Explorers Sky Swings, based on Up) is expected in 2027.

A completely original land created for Disneyland Paris in 2026. It is the first land in the world devoted entirely to Tangled and Up, with nothing like it in the other Disney parks.
