Guests walk throughout the AK park.

Otherwise, wheelchairs and ECVs are used for those who need assistance.
Strollers can be rented there or brought in by guests.
And, of course, some of the attractions use trucks or trains or other ride vehicles during the various experiences.

Thanks for the response all.

I just wanted to add, unless something has changed, you'll want to bring your own stroller if you need one for your infant. Not sure how old, but when I went w/ my two year old and 4 month old, I called ahead to see if the WDW rental strollers would work for my 4 month old. I was told that the double strollers would be fine. I discovered that they were not after I had already rented one. There was no way the baby could be in that stroller!

I ended up getting two singles - one of them was more designed for infants. After using it for a few days we purchased one of the red and black umbrella strollers in the resort gift shop. It's pricey (around $50) but a great stroller. The height is perfect, unlike most umbrella strollers I don't end up hunched over or kicking the bottom crossbar when I walk.

Sorry for the long response, but I wish I had known about the WDW rental strollers ahead of time, I had quite a moment when I realized that the double stroller I had just paid quite a bit for was completely useless!

Thanks for the detailed response. Much appreciated.

I am planning to take my stroller. Let me see how that works for me.
