Howdy, Anne!
You sound like a planner after my own heart. While I love all the digital planning tools at my fingertips, I still like to have and hold a paper copy for reference. I adore paper planners, prefer books to my e-reader and can't wait until I can flip through the theme park guide maps on our magical visits.
You will be happy to know that you are able to download and print the park maps from your computer at home. For example, if you visit the
Magic Kingdom Park page of the
Walt Disney World Resort website, and scroll all the way down to where you see the map, right before it you'll see a white and purple arrow and "Magic Kingdom Guide Map." If you click on those words, it will open a tab with the latest theme park guide map which you can then download or print.
Here they are for each park:
You can also find them available for the
Walt Disney World Resort Water Parks. Although I understand the importance of a paper copy, I also highly recommend the
My Disney Experience Mobile App for finding this same information as well as a treasure trove of theme park and resort tips and highlights. The In-Park Navigation is amazing for letting you know just where you'll find your next experience, how to find the nearest bathroom or which restaurants are closest to your current location.
Thank you for visiting planDisney. Have an incredible vacation, Anne, and please come see us again soon if there is anything else we can help you plan.
Magical Wishes,
Lauren
