About Expedition Everest
Expedition Everest is a steel coaster from Vekoma at Disney's Animal Kingdom, opened in 2006. The trains climb the Forbidden Mountain, a 60.8 m tall peak guarded by a Yeti, and later run backwards through the dark after the track switches direction. The layout is 1,253 m long with a top speed of 80 km/h, a 24 m main drop and no inversions, and a run takes about two minutes and fifty seconds. The Yeti is a 7.6 m Audio-Animatronic. Riders must be 112 cm tall.
