I think that most of us on here do our research pretty well so don't miss much. However, I think it's not uncommon to be rushing from one "big" attraction to another and miss some of the smaller detail elements such as the photos in Lily's boutique or the posters by the lockers on the way in

Hard to explain, but when you take the hidden walkway from Pirates to Adventureland, theres a few random walkways out to the hub area, theres also a mini Volcano there too, just look in the trees

Been going for years & still haven't found all these. The kids said they are going on a DLP hunt when we get there- we will find these gems! :D


Slimy yet satisfying

There used to be a guy who posted regularly called Rafael from Brazil I think. He used to take amazing fine detail photos. We always saved them to our phone and played a kind of hide and seek with them with our now grown up kids. It's great fun and encourages you to slow down and really enjoy your surroundings...some were more difficult than other to find. I wish he still posted  :(

The under cover walkway is so good when there's rain about, but also good as a fairly quick route.  Kaa in the trees is tricky to spot, and off route for a lot of people

Def going to look for kaa the kids r just getting into jungle book.  Managed to see the wishing well.  Need to find the hidden walk ways.  I walked past the sword in the stone n cinderella carriage a few times before I noticed them

Wow so looking for this the next time we go. How awesome. Any more things that people tend to miss?

The pocahontas Indian village play area is easy to miss I find. The river rogue keelboat were pretty hidden too but I don't think these run anymore?

Yes, the river rogue keelboats don't run anymore. And if the pueblo trading post is closed, and there's no shows on at the  chaparral theatre that whole corner can be easily missed

Dragon under The Castle was definitely one I didn't know about on my first trip. I like searching all the hidden Mickeys too.

There are the characters from Up on a boat in a stream somewhere but I'm unsure where as I didn't find it last time. Going to hunt for it this time.
