Are you a Disney World Space Mountain fan? If so, be prepared to add steps to your pedometer the next time you ride this attraction!
The exit of this attraction has been undergoing refurbishment, which is now complete.
The ride remained open during the refurbishment, and now the exit path is open with changes. The biggest change you’ll find is the removal of the “speedramps”/moving sidewalks that were along the path out to the gift shop.
You’ll now be walking and winding your way to the gift shop via several ramps.
As you get closer to the shop you’ll start to see some color added in the lighting and in some art on the walls.
You’ll exit as always into the gift shop!

Boring and utilitarian…nothing Disney-like.
Great…more walking.
Yeah, that was my thought – and uphill!
Perhaps we need an escalator on the Swiss Family Robinson Tree House also. It’s uphill and a lot of climbing.

Could it be more bland? No more dioramas? No moving beltway? And I know the video cameras and monitors were cheesy throwbacks, but kids actually still liked them.
I miss RYCA-1 ?????
Chuck,
While the beltway and the camera were kinda neat, they just encouraged people to linger. That was all fine and dandy back in the days of small and moderate crowds. But that doesn’t work in the new WDW era of pack em in like cattle and quickly herd em out into the gift shop.
Glad to see they scrapped the horizontal escalator. It never worked when half the people just stood still and the other half ran or speed walked. I’m guilty of both, depending on my mood at the time. As long as they kept the “star chamber” music and the clean minimalistic future look, I’ll give it a thumbs up.
