About Penguin Trek

SeaWorld Orlando has announced its new ride for 2024, the Penguin Trek family launch coaster. The new ride will replace the Antarctica: Empire of the Penguins, a trackless dark ride that closed in March 2020. The new ride is manufactured by Bolliger & Mabillard (B&M) and it will be one of the most thrilling rides in the park, with speeds of up to 43 mph and 3,020 feet of track that will take riders through exciting outdoor thrills and indoor dark ride scenes.

One of the unique features of this immersive attraction is that it continues even after the ride is over. After the coaster comes to a halt, visitors will have the opportunity to trek on foot through the heart of SeaWorld's own penguin habitat where they can come face-to-beak with a real penguin colony.

This attraction has something for everyone. It is open to riders of all heights, ranging from 42 inches to 77 inches in height, and it is designed to be a family-friendly ride. Even small children, around five years old, can ride with their parents. The new ride is expected to open in spring 2024 and it is sure to be a thrilling experience for penguin enthusiasts and thrill-seekers of all ages.

Stay tuned for more updates on this thrilling new addition to SeaWorld Orlando!
