Penguin Trek rider cam video
Join Mikey and Harry from Magic City Mayhem as they ride Penguin Trek for the first time! Note from Mikey: “It’s mentioned on our channel, but Harry is on the autism spectrum and may have an atypical reaction to being overstimulated. There might be parts of the video where it looks like he may not be having fun, but he wanted to go on it again, which means he liked it!”
Video tour of refreshed Antarctica Realm
To complement Penguin Trek, SeaWorld refreshed the surrounding Antarctica Realm. Come along with us on a video tour of the area, which reopened on Memorial Day Weekend 2024:
Compare the makeover above to the original version of the area, which debuted in 2013, in this video from our archives:

Penguin Trek construction site tour
In winter 2024, we donned our hardhats and visited the construction site of Penguin Trek. Seeing how it all turned out makes it fun to go back and look at its in-progress self:
POV of Penguin Trek’s predecessor
Penguin Trek invariably replaced a long-defunct attraction that formerly occupied portions of the coaster’s real estate, Antarctica: Empire of the Penguin. The trackless dark ride opened in 2013.
