I'm going to Disney & Universal in Feb. There is a ride at Universal called The Unicorn.

I know its some sort of kiddie coaster? Is that all it is? It says it flys over the enchanted forest. Are there any animatronics or such things or is the "enchanted forest" just the trees that happened to be near where the ride was built.


Thanks!
 
This is the Flying Unicorn and it's at Universal's Islands of Adventure. It's essentially a kiddie coaster. Adults can ride it too. It lasts less than a minute. As for the enchanted forest, it's essentially the queue area and a bunch of bushes. The layout of the coaster is similiar to the Woodstock Express at Cedar Point.

Here's some photos:

It's a great kiddie coaster, but it sure is tough on the knees.
Long legs and small cars are a dangerous mix. As you walk by
listen to the adults all groan at the end of the ride when it hits the brakes. It always brings a smile to my face.
