Return to Fantasyland – Return to Disneyland

The Matterhorn Bobsleds is a thrilling roller coaster attraction located in the Fantasyland section of Disneyland in Anaheim, California. It is based on the iconic Matterhorn mountain in the Swiss Alps.

The ride begins with guests boarding bobsled-shaped ride vehicles, each of which can seat up to six guests. The bobsleds then ascend a steep lift hill, offering riders panoramic views of the park before plunging down a series of thrilling drops, turns, and banked curves. As the ride progresses, it takes riders through a series of darkened tunnels, complete with special effects and projections that simulate an icy, mountainous landscape. Guests will also encounter animatronic abominable snowmen, who add to the excitement and adventure of the ride. One of the most iconic elements of the Matterhorn Bobsleds is the mountain itself, which towers over Fantasyland and can be seen from all over the park. The mountain is modeled after the real-life Matterhorn mountain in Switzerland and is covered in snow and ice, complete with frozen waterfalls and jagged peaks.

The Matterhorn Bobsleds attraction is a must-ride for guests seeking adventure and excitement at Disneyland. The ride duration is around two and a half minutes, and it is designed to accommodate guests of all ages and thrill levels, making it a popular choice for families and thrill-seekers alike.
