Disney Reveals Reopening Date for Kali River Rapids at Disney’s Animal Kingdom
According to the Walt Disney World website, Kali River Rapids is scheduled to reopen on March 14th at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. The whitewater rafting water ride has been closed since January 6th for its annual refurbishment. Due to historically colder temperatures, Walt Disney World typically closes Kali River Rapids for a couple of months at the start of the year.


Kali River Rapids
Set out on a thrilling whitewater adventure through a lush jungle in the heart of Asia.
Raft Down a Rip-Roaring River
Skim across an erupting geyser, drift below a canopy of lush vegetation and be whisked along fast-moving rapids. Graze gushing waterfalls and bedrock amid the raging current. Then, as the harmony of nature is disrupted, you’ll plummet down a dramatic 20-foot slope!
You Will Get Wet
You will surely get splashed on this attraction—and you may even get soaked. Guests wishing to remain dry are encouraged to bring a waterproof poncho, extra clothes or a towel to dry off.
Lockers for mobile devices and other items you want to stay dry are located across from the entrance to Kali River Rapids and are available during your ride (on a first-come, first-served basis).
