Wildest Ride in the Wilderness

Legend has it that eerie incidents have occurred in the mine after gold was discovered in the 1850s. Trains would accelerate and travel down the track on their own, and there’s no explanation as to how. You’re aboard one of these trains, and you’re about to discover what it has in store for you.

Our Overview

Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is not an intense roller coaster, but it definitely packs a punch. The themed environment, which Disney is known for excelling at, further enhances the ride. You can’t leave Disneyland without visiting this attraction.

Lightning Lane Multi Pass Participating Attraction

Lightning Lane Multi Pass is a paid service that acts as Disneyland Resort's express line system, allowing you to benefit from shorter wait times at select attractions. Upon entering a theme park, you can select an available arrival window for participating attractions, one at a time, throughout the day (subject to availability) via the Disneyland app. Due to differing eligible attractions for Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Lightning Lane Single Pass, each pass is only valid for its designated attractions and cannot be used interchangeably.
