Travel Times to parks

[rideswithchrist]

Is this right:
If we stay in say 1500, we would get on the bus at the bus stop outside that loop and take it to A) Marina if going to MK, then ride the boat. Or B) The Settlement and get in line for the bus going to the other parks.

Is that right?

I am having a hard time figuring out how big the Fort is in relation to square miles and walking time.
Bikes are free, but we have to decide how we are going to get our stroller around.

B) The Settlement and get in line for the bus going to the other parks.

For the other parks you will want to take the bus going to the Outpost. The marquee on the front and side of the bus will tell you where the bus is heading.

You can take your strollers on the internal buses

Buses won't take you to the marina area?

They will take you to the marina, also called Settlement, from there you can take boat to MK, WL, Cont., also bus service to WL. HDD is also there along with TE and Tri-Cirle D where the pony rides and stables are.

AH! I was looking at a map and I swear it had the Settlement up at the front so I was confused. I think I just read it wrong.
YES- bus to the front to go everywhere else.

According to a Google map walking distance search- if we are in 1500 OR 200, we are only looking at a 10 minute walk to the marina or depot. So unless it is raining, I think we would just do that rather than wait for an internal bus and fight the stroller twice. We are trying to pack minimal so we will have the kid's scooters so they can zoom around but we will not be bringing the bikes this time.

What I meant was I am not sure how we would tow the stroller if we were taking the bikes to the boat or bus stop, so we were thinking of just taking internal busses or just walking.

How often do internal busses run?

 

[team bradfield]

every 20 minutes, they start at 6:30 am and run until 2 hours after the latest park closes

How often do internal busses run?

About every 10 minutes. There are three routes the busses take in the campground with 2 busses on each route, depending on what loop you are in. If you are lucky enough to get the 1500 like you are hoping for, the marquee on the bus will say Yellow then the destination, Outpost ,Settlement. The 2000 loop is purple and the other route is orange. Both the purple and orange bus goes through the cabin areas.

The busses run in opposite directions of one another, so one bus on the route will be going toward the Settlement while the other is heading for the Outpost, and they do that all day long.
