Do you go clockwise or counter at the Magic Kingdom?

I have heard that people who are right handed go right and left handed go left. But I want to find out. Will you help me? Thanks.

We actually sort of BB around the MK! Unlike EPCOT we don't go in one direction. It's so easy to navigate the MK, you can just jump from place to place.

we almost always go over to adventureland first, that's our gameplan, I don't think it has much to do with handedness

I am the only full true lefty in my family. Dad is left handed but eats like a righty. I usually lead the way and I always start off by going to the left and methodically going clockwise around the kingdom.

Woo Hoo fellow southpaw!!! You know, we're the only people in our right minds.....


I am a lefty, but we usually end up in Tomorrowland first (either WDW or DL) because I'm usually lead by a righty. :)

If I'm leading, we will tend to the left...


However, it also depends on what we're there for...for instance in October when Ghost Galaxy took over Space Mountain, we went there first because we knew the lines would be outrageous later on. Then over to HM holiday. I guess it depends on our mood....

I am mostly left handed and head over to Adventureland first. But I think that has more to do with that's where we always headed when I was young and with my parents.

Left handed here and I always go to Tomorrowland first...Why is that? I have no idea.
Interesting to see when we get more of a sample size!

Wow! Len90, MmeLeota, wewantsdaredhead, kcarts - and myself included - all lefties?!? What are the odds in that? Usually finding a left-handed person around where I am is very rare - and yet here - are the right-handed people the minority??? :shock:

This is pretty cool...all the southpaws on here. It will be interesting to see as more people answer what the concensus will be.

I am a righty I start in Adventureland and basicaly jump around as people in my party think of rides they want to do. No real method to my madness except taking your time and enjoying myself, why rush the attraction aint goin anywhere. So much at Disney to see and do!

fyi. My son is a lefty if that makes you southpaws feel better! :)

Right handed to the left, Pirates is a must for the first ride.

When you start to "Believe" and work hard toward the direction of your dreams you will find yourself at your goal sooner than expected.

My wife and I are both right handed, but always start in Adventureland and continue in and orderly, clockwise direction.
