Is there anything more calming than walking through the lush greenery on Disney’s Animal Kingdom pathways, with the sounds of the river nearby and rhythmic music playing in the background?
We think that’s about as zen as it gets in Disney World! You deserve a break from your busy day, so come with us for a walk through the wildest park at Disney World!
We’ll start off at the Tree of Life Gardens by the Discovery River. Let’s take in the sounds of the water and the gorgeous plants along the walkway!

You’ll find gorgeous walkways all over Discovery Island by the Tree of Life. We love just wandering the park and finding these quiet spots with practically no guests to just enjoy the magic of being in Disney! We also adore the market atmosphere of Harambe Market in Animal Kingdom, which is where we’re heading next!

The market is also a great place to grab a snack or treat and enjoy some music while you sit in the shade and eat! After your break, let’s walk down by the Kali River Rapids to hear the rushing river and see some very soaked guests!

That’s the perfect sound for meditation if you ask us. And speaking of zen moments, we’ll end our walk by taking a quiet moment next to a very peaceful fountain!
