How long does it take to see the entire park?
We recommend allowing at least two hours for your visit, but some people prefer to stay half a day or more! If you plan to visit in the afternoon, we recommend arriving no later than 3:00 p.m. (2:00 p.m. during winter hours) to ensure you have time to see all of the park and experience The Landing Zone, which closes at 4:00.
