SeaWorld describes Penguin Trek as a family launch coaster. It will have a minimum height requirement of 42 inches and reach a top speed of 43 mph. 

Last month, SeaWorld shared more details about the coaster, including showing off a piece of the track during a media event.

The attraction will also include park’s penguin habitat in its finale.

Penguin Trek will open at SeaWorld Orlando in the spring as the park’s eighth coaster, joining a lineup that includes Pipeline: The Surf Coaster, Ice Breaker, Mako and Manta.
