Epcot resorts to Epcot monorail without a ticket?

[Geyser Gazer]

Can you walk or friendship boat to the Epcot monorail station from any of the Epcot resorts without paid Epcot admission?

I think your options would be to boat to MGM, then take a bus to the Epcot entrance. I know there is a bus from Epcot to the MGM entrance, so I'm almost positive it goes both ways.

You MIGHT be able to take a bus from an Epcot resort to the Ticket and Transportation Center and then monorail from there.

To walk through Epcot you must have a ticket, UNLESS it is late in the evening and Illuminations is over, a CM might let you walk through Epcot to get to the front.

Unfortuantely, no you can't. You have to walk through Epcot to get to the monorail, and you must have a ticket to do that. Where are you trying to go? If it's to MK, all of the Epcot resorts have bus service to MK.

Wendy,
I just prefer the boats and monorails to the buses even if it takes longer.
Thanks.

If you have a park hopper ticket (or AP, LOS) it won't matter if you have to show your ticket in EPCOT and again in the MK (it is a bit of walk through EPCOT unless your going to eat or go to a few attrractions on the way through).

Clarification:

The Epcot monorail station is outside Epcot in front. The boat dock serving "Epcot area" resorts is at the rear of Epcot in the World Showcase area. You don't need admission to Epcot to ride the monorail but you do need admission to get from the boat dock to the monorail station.
