Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana, Officially Opens on the Disney Company’s 100th Anniversary.

Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana, is open at Walt Disney World’s Epcot; explore a beautifully landscaped walking trail with fun and surprises around each turn as you engage with water in magical ways like Moana did with the ocean – from a simple greeting to a high five or even a crashing wave of fun. This lush and tropical path is the first Disney Parks experience to immerse guests into a world inspired by the Walt Disney Animation Studios film, “Moana.”

The new walkthrough attraction is the latest addition to the expansive vacation destination that is Walt Disney World. Journey of Water is the newest chapter in Walt Disney World’s expansion. Debuting as part of a multi-year transformation of EPCOT, the attraction showcases the innovation and creativity that Disney is known for.

In addition to experiencing this new attraction, guests will have the opportunity to meet Moana in a new area of World Nature. Nestled across from Journey of Water, it is the perfect place for fans to snap a few photos, share in a hug, or even recount their important learnings about water conservation with the Wayfinder herself.

From the youngest little ones to the generations who are young at heart, every family member can enjoy this fun, lively, and interactive experience as they discover ways to befriend, protect, and cherish the water that connects and gives life to the world. Like Moana’s friend, the ocean water here has a playful personality, and guests can join in the fun by making music with “rain harps,” waving to jumping streams, and creating a roaring ocean wave.

As guests walk along the trail, they will come across Te Fiti, who is seen protecting water as it travels through the water cycle. Guests might even discover beloved characters carved in the rock formations.
