One of my family’s favorite rides at Disneyland is Splash Mountain. I have five young kids and my three oldest are tall enough to go on the ride at 9, 7 and 6 years old. If there’s one thing we dislike it’s standing in line. As a parent I am a little further on my journey of practicing patience. However, my children are not quite as patient.

So, the best time to ride Splash Mountain is definitely during the off-season within the first couple hours of the park opening. Once again we went to the park on October 3rd with my little six-year-old and we waited for only five minutes at about 10:15 a.m. and that’s with the park having been opened at 8:00 a.m.

What are some good times for rides that you’ve found?

I came across some cool graphs (from scottware.com.au) that should help you plan your Disneyland Resort vacation. I found this pretty helpful and having been to Disneyland often I find it pretty accurate. It’s not exact, but gives you a good general idea…
