Think of this as "Tom Sawyer's Island" for bigger kids. This faux campground offers zip lines, cargo nets, forts and suspension bridges for exploration. Join Russell from Up and become a Wilderness Explorer by completing some of the challenges on the trail. Note that some challenges might have a height requirement.

Sorry, folks, but for me (and my kids) this is a colossal waste of space. You'd equate this section to Tom Sawyer's Island at Disneyland, Honey, I Shrunk the Kids at Disney Hollywood Studios, or the Curious George section at Universal Studios Hollywood. It's just an area for the kids to run rampant while the adults rest. Having said that, there is very little to do here. Two slides and a weak attempt at a zip line. I guess the story time with Brother Bear is kinda cute, but really, this space should be revisited for something else. My kids were bored within 5 minutes and their younger cousins within 10. Not a fan. - Jeff Haslam

The height requirement listed here is misleading. Kids of any size can enter but are restricted from some of the activities, such as the zip line. I find this a relaxing place and my kids LOVE this section of the park. They literally could spend all day here. - Kevin Crossman

Huge play area, but without actually very much to do. All this space, and just two slides? - Mostly Anonymous

I love this attraction. It's so fun to do all the stuff in it and it's a good way to spend 30 minutes of your times. - Reggie Templeton

Pretty fun for the entire family. Very similar to Tom Sawyer's Island - Anthony Murphy
