Take a ride with Pooh's as he takes you on his honey hunting experience in this 4K POV. Filmed and edited by TheCoasterViews. It is a wild ride as your ride vehicle "a beehive" (super creative theming) tilts you in a a few different ways. This ride is definitely a trip!
"Get lost in the pages of A.A. Milne’s classic tales as you glide through Pooh’s most memorable adventures (from the Disney film). Board your beehive and get swept up in a gust of wind with Piglet, Gopher, Eeyore, Kanga and Roo. Band together with Tigger and friends to stay afloat in a torrential downpour."
"Celebrate sunny days and togetherness as Pooh finally gets his paws on some honey. This visual extravaganza filled with classic Disney songs is sure to delight cubs of all ages! Based on the stories by A.A. Milne, the Disney film was released in 1977 and included songs written by the Sherman Brothers."

After the rise in popularity of Walt Disney's film adaptation of Winnie the Pooh, Disney Imagineers made plans in the late 1970s for a Winnie the Pooh attraction at Disneyland's soon-to-be renovated Fantasyland. However, in 1983, when the renovated Fantasyland reopened, there was no Winnie the Pooh attraction.
Following the success of the 1988 film Who Framed Roger Rabbit, plans were made for a new section of the park located behind Fantasyland. Called Mickey's Toontown, one of the rides that would have gone on the east side of this land was a Winnie the Pooh dark ride in which guests would ride in honey pots that they could spin (much like the Mad Tea Party in Fantasyland) through scenes from the three Winnie the Pooh featurettes. The ride was ultimately canceled however, and the space it would have taken up and the vehicle design were reworked into Roger Rabbit's Car Toon Spin.
An original plan from the mid-1990s placed an indoor and outdoor light boat ride featuring a Winnie the Pooh theme at Disneyland. This plan was shelved by 1999, so a new dark ride was planned. Disneyland is the only one of the six Disney resorts to have little room for expansion. The solution to open this attraction in the park was to replace an existing attraction with this new ride.
Critter Country, between New Orleans Square and Frontierland, was ultimately chosen since Winnie the Pooh already had his own greeting area and Pooh Corner shop in that land by 1996. The area already featured two attractions, Splash Mountain (1989–2023) and Country Bear Jamboree, the latter being the first attraction to open in the land (then Bear Country) in 1972.
Imagineers chose to replace the Country Bear Jamboree with Pooh since it wasn't too popular. They talked about a new racing attraction called the "Critter Country 500" but management rejected this idea. As a tribute to Country Bear Jamboree, the heads of Max the deer, Melvin the moose and Buff the buffalo are mounted in the wall inside the ride.
Ride:
While the Magic Kingdom, Hong Kong, and Shanghai versions are very similar, the version of the ride at Disneyland is unique. The ride vehicles resemble beehives, rather than the honey pots found in other versions of the attraction. Upon leaving the outdoor load area, the ride vehicles arrive indoors into the Hundred Acre Wood where Pooh is swinging in the air with a balloon. Eeyore and Gopher are next to him. The ride vehicles move into the rain scene, moved from the second-to-last scene in Florida's to the second scene in California's. Most of the things at this point are identical to Florida's version. The ride vehicles move into the shortened Tigger scene, before moving to Pooh's bedroom, where a scene similar to Florida's version occurs.
The ride vehicles move into the heffalumps and woozles dream sequence where jack-in-the-box woozles watch the guests. A pink Tigger pins Pooh to the floor near some honey. Some of the effects here are similar to Florida's. Another Pooh bobs up and down in a balloon suspended above a swirling whirlpool of honey. The mechanism was the one which once lowered "Teddi Barra" from the ceiling in Country Bear Jamboree.
As the ride vehicles leave this scene, the trophy heads of Max, Buff, and Melvin can be spotted if one looks up and backward while leaving the heffalump room. The vehicles enter the start of the finale scene where Pooh is enjoying honey. The heffalumps can be seen flying off into Pooh's dreamland before several of Pooh's friends tell him to wake up. The ride passes Pooh's bed before moving on to show Pooh's friends (all sculpted figures with movement) celebrating his birthday. Several of the gifts Pooh received for his party are shown. The vehicles continue until they reach the unload area.
Imagineer Raymond Kinman, a woodcarver, carved the entrance and Jim Cummings voiced Winnie-the-Pooh and Tigger in this version of the attraction.
