The Walt Disney World Resort offers so much more than just theme parks. From horseback riding and bass fishing to archery to world-class spas, there are so many experiences waiting for you that do not require a single park pass reservation.

But as the Central Florida mega-resort steadily reopens, not all of these experiences are reopened to Disney Guests just yet. So here are some recreational activities that are available right now at Walt Disney World.
