Swiss Family Treehouse - Wait time?

[BingandNelsonFan]

Does the Swiss Family Treehouse have wait times, or is it generally a walk-on thing?
Does it have bad times of day, or is it pretty consistent in crowds? Thanks!

Almost always a walk on - confirming you mean at WDW.

Oh, yes! Sorry about that. I do mean WDW. Watched a YouTube walkthrough recently, and my sister and I have always loved that movie. So, now we're contemplating hopping over to MK for the evening in order to walk through that. From the video we saw, it looked pretty simple and not built for too long a wait, but I want to make sure it's not one of those that can end up being an hour or more.

You will be absolutely fine! Almost never a line, and some good views, especially at night (fireworks). Enjoy, it is a classic!

Thank you so much! That sounds great. My sister will be very happy to hear this.

Never a wait at WDW for Swiss Family Treehouse.

I recommend taking your time. There are lots of good sights from the Treehouse. Swissapolka is a personal favorite of mine.

I think Disney ADDS time to your day for stopping by Swiss Family Treehouse It's just not super popular, but I think it's really cool that you want to go because it's one of those attractions that's really nice if you take some time to enjoy it.

Usually no line and a must do for us because, like you, my son and I love the movie. My only complaint is if there are a number of people behind you, sometimes you feel rushed and can't really take the time to stop and look in the rooms and notice all the details. A lot of people just walk up it, glance in the rooms while passing by and walk back down.

It's beautiful at night.

At most on super busy days it may be 5-10 mins…
As long as lightning isn’t in the area you are good to go
There are a few vloggers I follow who love watching HEA from the tree

This was our experience a couple weeks ago. It was basically just a line of people ahead and behind us and we had to go at everyone else's pace. Which, unfortunately, was the pace of kids literally stepping on my heels and me almost falling. (And I was already going as fast as I could without stepping on people ahead of me.) So, sadly, not the best experience...which is a bummer because I have fond memories of this attraction as a kid and I love the movie. I didn't even feel like I could stop and take any pics.

Just wanted to add that since you love the movie you’ll really like the treehouse, it’s exactly the same as the one in the movie down to the tiniest detail. It’s really cool

Going to try it!

The view across the park is amazing too. You can see glimpses of the castle and Tomorrowland all lit up. It's usually not busy at all either. They have lights so that you can see the vignettes.

Very unusual for there to be a wait! We always visit the treehouse my daughter loves it!

Never seen a line at WDW. A fun view of fireworks.

I take my time enjoying the views & if people come behind I step aside & let them pass. It's an attraction I take at a leisure pace.
