Calling all adventurers! After an extended period of refurbishment, the iconic Barrel Bridge has finally returned to Tom Sawyer Island in Magic Kingdom’s Frontierland. This wobbly, playful passage has been a cherished part of the island’s experience for years, and its absence left many feeling a bit out to sea. But fear not, treasure hunters – the bridge is back and better than ever!

The chance to test your balance and camaraderie as you navigate the bobbing barrels brings out the inner Tom Sawyer or Becky Thatcher in all of us. It’s a rite of passage for Magic Kingdom veterans and a delightful surprise for first-time explorers.
