Walk from CBR to Epcot?

[mbtohill]

Is it an easy walk from the Caribbean Beach Resort to Epcot?? How far??

I could be wrong...but I dont think you can. :shrug:

It is not really walkable. Although physically they are close, there is no walkway, and you would basically be crossing a major road. If your ant walkable to Epcot, try Beach/Yacht/Boardwalk/Swan/Dolphin.

Thanks for the help, that's what I thought, trying to use miles to squeeze into a place for the food and wine festival.

*Technically* you can walk from CBR to the International Gateway, but it would require you to walk across a lawn and around a few trees at CBR near the Aruba bus stop to get out to the Buena Vista Blvd/Victory Way intersection.

But once you're out to the intersection, there's actually a walk/don't-walk pedestrian signal to cross Buena Vista. And from there a sidewalk along Buena Vista set back from the road.
You could either cut in through the Boardwalk parking lot, or there's a path leading down to the canal behind the Boardwalk where you can turn left to go to the Studios or right to go to the Epcot resorts and the International Gateway.

I believe the crossing signal is a vestige from before Victory Way was built, when the back gate to CBR came out at that signal and Disney thought perhaps Guests might want to walk. I've *never* seen anyone use it, but it's there.

I don't believe you can... Well, you can. But you may have to walk across dangerous roads. And it's always really hot. It's not worth the risk.

Wow that's a long walk! Sorry for being dumb, but if someone walks to the Studios where do they enter?

Usually only guests at yacht club/beach club/swan/dolphin/boardwalk walk to the Studios.

Their is a path that runs from the resorts only the waterway underneath an overpass and up to the entrance.

You would have to walk to the boardwalk resorts, through them and then take the pathway from the boardwalk to Studios. There isn't a direct route to walk unless you're at the Boardwalk. Honestly, it'll take longer to walk than it will to take a form of Disney transportation.

Thanks for the replies. I have seen the path but I was thinking there is some sort of walking access for those not staying at those resorts.

Yes, it is a loooong walk, but it CAN be done, because as said before, there is a "walk/don't walk" crossing signal and a sidewalk from that intersection all the way around Epcot Resorts Blvd with an offshoot dropping down from the overpass towards BoardWalk.

I have never walked it to get to a theme park, but I run it in the morning almost daily while on vacation. But usually from Yacht Club towards Caribbean Beach! It's a nice run.
