Mobility at DL

[dayvewc]

I am 50-ish days away from my first visit to DisneyLand. I have mild mobility impairments, which limit my ability to walk long distances (1/2 mile-ish is the limit) or stand for long periods of time (30-45 minutes) without dealing with an extreme amount of pain. I have discovered that the only way I can tour at WDW is through the use of an ECV, but I also know that DL and DCA are much smaller than WDW.

I currently plan to get an ECV when I go out west, but just wondered if others have found that the west coast parks are "smaller enough" that they are able to manage them better on their own instead of with an ECV.

Thanks

I believe you will probably need an ECV. There will still be a lot of walking and standing involved, especially if you intend to wait in line for attractions.

We use scooters in DL and WDW. Although, it's not as rough in DL it still allows us to be without pain.

My last visit in January, I walked 8 miles in one very full day, so yes, get that ECV!

Thanks!!! I had kind of figured that even with the parks being smaller, I would still need the ECV, but just wondered if others had different experiences.
