A Disney version of Gilligan's Island... in a tree


The Swiss Family Robinson Tree House is a large attraction-filled-tree that is situated near the entrance to Adventureland from Main Street USA. This large "Disneyodendron" is a replication of the fabricated Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse (from books and movies). This elaborate walk-thru attraction shows many bed rooms, living areas and other essentials to living that were "made by hand" by the Swiss Family Robinson. Below is a picture of the dining room area (foreground of picture) and kitchen (near the back of the shot) from the attraction:

This attraction is great for the whole family - an interesting learning/discussion opportunity. In addition, it provides fantastic one-of-a-kind views of the whole park! For even better views, be sure to check it out at night! This attraction rarely has a line, and since it is a walk-thru, it can be viewed at your own pace (unless you want to go fast and have someone taking a leisurely pace right in front of you). A perfect way to relax and enjoy yourself and a great option for a party member waiting for thrill-seeking-companions riding nearby Splash Mountain or Big Thunder Mountain Railroad!
