Ride Guide: Seven Dwarfs Mine Train

Avatar photoNovember 7, 2022 by Natalie Lemp

Location

Magic Kingdom – Walt Disney World

Type of Ride

Rollercoaster

Intensity Level

5/10

Minimum Height

38″

Seven Dwarfs Mine Train

Seven Dwarfs Mine Train will have you singing “Heigh-ho, heigh-ho, it’s up the mount we go!” on this thrilling fairytale adventure. Your swaying mine cart will take you up and down hills and sharp turns to the mine cave where the dwarfs work and sing. You’ll be singing the entire way up the big drop and out of the mine cave. The Seven Dwarves Mine Train is a perfect ride for adults and kids who want a tiny bit of thrill but a lot of Disney magic. The coaster track is smooth, and your cart doesn’t sway too intensely. Once you take your seat, you will have time to fasten your belongings on the floor or in the little pouch in front of you, and then it’s off to work you go!

Location of Seven Dwarfs Mine Train

Seven Dwarfs Mine Train is in Fantasy Land of Magic Kingdom, behind the Cinderella Castle. Seven Dwarfs Mine Train is close to The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh attraction.

What Age is it Best for?

My little brother first rode this coaster at four years old and absolutely loved this ride! I recommend this ride as a starter coaster for little kids that meet the 38″ requirement, but I guarantee adults will enjoy this ride as well. There is nothing frightening in the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train ride, and the drops are small, so it is very likely little kids will enjoy this ride as much as my little brother did.

How to Ride Seven Dwarfs Mine Train

The regular standby wait is at least an hour. You can pay for a Lightning Lane pass to skip the big lines, or you can pay for genie+ to get expert advice on what times to do different rides.

Will I get Motion Sickness on Seven Dwarfs Mine Train?

While it is not nearly as intense as some of the other roller coasters in the Disney World parks, this ride may cause you to feel sick if you are prone to motion sickness. I also do not recommend this ride for people with severe back, neck, heart, blood pressure, or other conditions that this ride might aggravate.

What items can I take on Seven Dwarfs Mine Train?

You can take anything on this ride as long as it fits securely below your feet or in the pouch provided in front of your seat. Cast Members will ask you to stow your loose hats, ears, and other small items in the pouch in front of you.

Can children ride on your lap?

Children cannot ride on your lap on Seven Dwarfs Mine Train. If you want to take children with you on this Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, they must meet the 38″ height requirement before they can ride with you.

Are there ride photos available?

There are ride photos available for Seven Dwarfs Mine Train. There is no place after exiting the ride to scan your magic band or ticket, so if you would like your photo, make sure you have the My Disney Experience app on your device and sign into your account. Another would be to make sure you have a working magic band with you while on the attraction.

Accessibility

You must be able to transfer out of your wheelchair for this attraction.

Insider Ride Tips

If you are a little nervous about being motion sick on this ride but would like to try it anyway, I recommend asking for seats in the front rows of the cart. As long as you request, cast members will do what they can to make sure you get a row in the front of the mine train.

Try to get seats in a row near the back of the train if you want a more thrilling adventure!

Sharing some of my favorite AMAZON dresses to wear Sharing some of my favorite AMAZON dresses to wear to the Disney parks! I like wearing lightweight dresses that feel casual but also a little bit princessy. And why not!? All linked in my Amazon shop. Find it in my stories and in my profile.
Comments overhead while walking around the Polynes Comments overhead while walking around the Polynesian Resort with 40th birthday balloons: “40 was ok. 50 killed me.” “No way! 40?” “4 was a good year. Oh, there’s a zero!” “Have a magical day!” and “Wait, when is your birthday again?” (said by my 15 year old son). Happy birthday to me! I’m officially 40!! 😆🥳
Why should you choose to stay at @grandlegacyhotel Why should you choose to stay at @grandlegacyhotel while visiting Disneyland?? Here’s a few reasons we love it:

💜 Walkability - We did not rent a car while we were in Anaheim. Grand Legacy is literally across the street from Disneyland, and just a couple blocks away from countless shops and restaurants. 
💜 Value - You can’t beat the price when you look at all you get while staying at Grand Legacy compared to other area hotels.
💜 Amenities - Our luxury plus room included a mini fridge, coffee maker and microwave, which is almost a necessity when staying multiple days. There are also beverages and snacks in the lobby, a pool, hot tub, and laundry facilities.
💜 Great for Families - We have stayed here with our family as well. There are lots of great options for families, including connecting rooms.
💜 View - There are many spots on property where you can view the Disneyland fireworks at night. Even though our room was not advertised as a firework view room, we were still able to catch a glimpse of them. There are rooms available with even better views of the theme parks and fireworks. We also enjoyed watching the fireworks from up top at @thefifthoc where they dim the lights and play Disneyland music during the show.

I felt like this footage deserved a permanent home I felt like this footage deserved a permanent home in my feed 😆 Pay close attention to Jay’s face as he prepares to ride Rise of the Resistance for the first time!! This ride has remained my favorite ride at Disney World since it opened but I have never been able to convince Jay to ride it. He does tend to get motion sickness on rides, and had said he would ride it if the wait was less than 10 minutes. I figured that meant he would never get to ride it, but the other night after a storm, the park had cleared out and we saw a 10 minute wait right before closing!! Jay now says it’s his favorite ride ever - his previous favorite was Frozen 😁

Thank you @disneyparks for hosting us at an awesome Ahsoka Tano fan event last night to celebrate the release of @ahsokaofficial on @disneyplus 

We bounded as some of our favorite characters, built a droid and rode the best ride in the galaxy (Rise of the Resistance), before grabbing some blue milk and screening the first two episodes of Ahsoka, the new series coming to Disney Plus August 23rd. You are going to LOVE this show! 

To end the night, we all gathered in front of the Millennium Falcon to light up our Ahsoka sabers! 🧡

First time in Vegas! It’s been fun to see everyt First time in Vegas! It’s been fun to see everything, but in reality, we came for the cheap flights and close proximity to the National Parks 😆 We’re celebrating our anniversary today with dinner at the (Vegas) Eiffel Tower, but we’ve been on the go everyday seeing the Grand Canyon, Joshua Tree, and Zion National Park! The heat is no joke, it has actually made me appreciate the weather in Florida 🤣

Our 20th anniversary trip is officially off to a g Our 20th anniversary trip is officially off to a great start!! We are so thankful to be here together. When we first started talking about going away for our anniversary, we were coming out of an incredibly challenging time in our life and barely making ends meet. Our best idea was to attend a timeshare presentation to get a free hotel stay (anyone else been there? 🙋🏻‍♀️). We’re grateful for some very special people in our life that encouraged us to make plans and helped make it possible to think a little bit bigger. We will be packing in as much fun as we can, with a road trip to Palm Springs, Vegas, the Grand Canyon, Joshua Tree and Zion National Park. We added on a stop at Disneyland and are proud to be partnering with the @grandlegacyhotel for the next couple days. This is our second time staying here, but the first time without kids!! We love the Grand Legacy because it is stylish and modern, but also affordable. It’s located RIGHT across the street from Disneyland and just a block from all kinds of shopping and entertainment. They had a beautiful anniversary basket waiting for us when we arrived and we enjoyed dinner with a fireworks view last night at @thefifthoc ✨
We tried the infamous dill pickle milkshake at the We tried the infamous dill pickle milkshake at the EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival! It’s one of those things that you just have to try! We were surprised how NOT disgusting it was. It started sweet and has an interesting flavor, but it wasn’t terrible. Find it at the Brew-Wing Lab at the Odyssey. Which is a cute, Muppet, themed food lab with all kinds of tasty concoctions!

We will be trying out @breezeairways flying nonstop from Disney World to Disneyland, then continuing on from there for our 20th anniversary trip. We’re going to pack a lot into a really quick trip, with stops at the Grand Canyon and Zion National Park. But we couldn’t get that close to Disneyland and not stop in for a quick visit 😊
