With the newest information dropped by Universal Destinations & Experiences, fans now know what they can expect with a visit to the land based on Dreamworks’ "How to Train Your Dragon" films.
"Here, guests will see what it’s like to live amongst dragons as they explore a larger-than-life world that includes exciting attractions, beloved character meet-and-greets, dining, shopping — and even flying dragons — based on DreamWorks Animation’s multi-award winning and Academy Award-nominated trilogy, "How to Train Your Dragon," states a press release from Universal Destination & Experiences.
Upon entry to this park, guests will immediately feel like they have been transported to a land they have only seen on the screen.
This park was created based on the setting of these movies, with intricate details of the rocky world where Vikings and Dragons coexist.
The sparkling lagoon featuring two 40-foot tall Viking statues is a can’t miss. One of the new rides featured in this park, Fyre Drill, is in the lagoon. The boat ride is an interactive one, where guests will hop on board and attempt to shoot targets with water cannons.
This land will also be home to Hiccup’s Wing Gliders.
This ride is a family-friendly coaster that hits speeds of 45 mph and takes riders around Berk and through the lagoon.

For the little ones in your family, Viking Training Camp will provide endless fun. This spot is a play area located in the park.
