Note: This mega-attraction opened in April 2006: read about it and see photos at Expedition Everest. The pages below cover only the construction phase.

Two-and-a-half years of construction, and many more years of research, have gone into the creation of a giant new attraction in Animal Kingdom.

Expedition Everest is, fittingly, a mountain-themed roller coaster, like Magic Kingdom's three classic Mountain coasters, Splash, Thunder, and Space.
