Height Requirements CONFIRMED for NEW Universal Epic Universe rides coming to How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk in 2025

In 2025, guests can enter an immersive new land, How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk, and soar with dragons in a colorful world filled with Viking adventures based on the wildly popular How to Train Your Dragon film franchise.

Earlier today, Thursday, March 28, Universal Orlando Resort shared full details on the first land within the currently under construction Universal Epic Universe.

The land, How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk, includes three rides within the land, and now we know the height requirements for each of them!

How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk, is one of five worlds featured at the all-new Universal Epic Universe theme park opening in 2025.

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.”

How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk captures the heart, humor and scale of the films within an authentic re-creation of the rugged, rocky world where raucous Vikings and rambunctious dragons live together in hilarious harmony, now check out the height requirements...

Hiccup’s Wing Gliders

On this family thrill coaster, Hiccup invites brave new Vikings to take a ride in his latest glider contraption – a winged flying machine that launches aspiring Dragon Riders into the sky for a dragon’s eye view of Berk.

Guests will fly alongside Hiccup and Toothless and reach speeds up to 45 mph as they soar around the perimeter of Berk – and even through the lagoon – while experiencing firsthand what it’s like to fly on a dragon.

Height Requirement

Minimum Height 40" (102 cm)

Supervising Companion Required

Children under 48" must be accompanied by a Supervising Companion. Hand-held infants are not permitted.

Fyre Drill

Mischievous Viking twins Ruffnut and Tuffnut invite teams of Vikings to compete to outscore and out-soak each other on this wet-and-wild boat battle. Guests will board a colorful dragon-headed boat and blast water cannons at flame-like targets to practice putting out fires – a crucial skill to master when living with dragons.

Height Requirement

No Minimum Height

Supervising Companion Required

Children under 48" must be accompanied by a Supervising Companion. Hand-held infants are not permitted.

Dragon Racer’s Rally

Berk’s new Vikings racers can practice aerobatic maneuvers and high-speed barrel rolls on two Viking-made dragon-riding trainers that reach heights of up to 67 feet in the air. Guests can control how “wild” or “mild” their experience will be as they perform high-flying, gravity-defying, swooping and soaring skills that are necessary to earn the accolades worthy of a true champion dragon racer.

Height Requirement

Minimum Height 48" (122 cm)
