Space Mountian

Motion Sickness Risk: High

Motion Triggers: Riding a roller coaster into the cosmos sounds like a delight but with Space Mountain’s combination of a dark tunnel and flashing lights right at the get-go it is sure to send your senses into disorientation. Rider beware of simulated screens that spin and display disappearing focal points.

 

Matterhorn

Motion Sickness Risk: Moderate

Motion Sickness Triggers: Many avid Disneyland goers report that the Left track of the Matterhorn is the bumpiest of this two-track roller coaster. Its dark tunnels at the launch point could be enough to set you off to a bad start. Cutouts in the mountain walls provide quick horizon views but they may not be enough for some rides.
