Isle of Berk: An Overview

 

OVERVIEW:
This is Berk. It's a viking settlement where, for the first time ever, humans and dragons are able to coexist with each other. Once, they fought each other, but now, they are peacefully united in harmony.

This isn't entirely what the area in Universal's Epic Universe will be like. It is more of a family area with mainly rides for kids, but don't underestimate it. In here, guests can find the opportunity to fly on the back of a dragon.

But the best part of the area isn't the rides, but the environment itself. Looking around, guests might see dragons all over the place. They might see tails sticking out of holes. They might see Terrible Terrors on the roofs. They might even see some walking around.....who knows? We'll see.
