Discovery Island Trails

Discovery Island, much like Main Street, U.S.A at the Magic Kingdom Park, is home to the park’s icon and is the central location for the park with access to all of the six of the park’s lands from this one area. The towering icon for Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park, the Tree of Life, is 14 stories tall and provides much more than a photo opportunity for guests passing by Discovery Island. Not only does the Tree of Life have more than 300 carvings of animals on its base, it also is home to the Discovery Island Trails, a series of pathways at the base of the tree that provide guests with face-to-face opportunities to get up close with some of the most fascinating creatures of the park.

Before we dive into the Discovery Island Trails at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park, we just have one more piece of information to pass along that will better equip you for your vacation to Central Florida.

Before you begin your vacation, it is also important to know a bit more information on the attractions at all of the Walt Disney World theme parks. This is especially true about the Discovery Island Trails, because most people just bypass the Tree of Life and head straight for the park’s main attractions without stopping to fully enjoy this area. The Discovery Island Trails, which can be access from any number of ways around the Tree of Life, are beautifully landscaped and vegetated and can be enjoyed at any time throughout your day (some prefer the peace of the morning, while others may prefer to hit the shaded trails during the busiest – and hottest – times of the day). Among the creatures you will encounter on the different trails are Axis Deer, Blue & Yellow Macaws, Galapagos Tortoises, Greater Flamingos, Red Kangaroos, Ring-tailed Lemurs, White Storks and White-faced Whistling Ducks, among many more!
