Tiara Tunnel is a cave located deep within Never Land featured in the Disney Junior animated series, Jake and the Never Land Pirates. It is guarded by the Ogre Princess, who will only help those pass the tunnel if they display good manners. Tiara Tunnel is known for its large spinning golden tiaras, preventing those from forcefully gaining access to the path leading to the Princess Treasure.
Role in the series[]
Tiara Tunnel first appeared in the episode "Princess Power!". While on the search for the princess treasure, Jake and his crew, accompanied by the Pirate Princess and Princess Winger, encounter the Ogre Princess outside of Tiara Tunnel. Skully whispers to his comrades that the ogre is not like any princess he had seen before, but the Pirate Princess reminds Skully that there is more to being a princess than her physical appearance, and states the Ogre Princess displays that within. As previously mentioned, the Ogre Princess will only allow those to pass Tiara Tunnel if they display good manners, which was not too much a trial for the young pirates. But once inside the tunnel, the young pirates find themselves puzzled as to how to pass the giant spinning tiaras. Luckily, the Ogre Princess also deactivates the spinning hazard, and sees the young pirates off through the end of the tunnel. Meanwhile, Captain Hook and his crew, disguised as princesses, were also after the princess's treasure, finally arriving at Tiara Tunnel where they are briefly delayed by the Ogre Princess. Hook could not see past the ogre's appearance to even hear the Ogre Princess' rules to gain passage through the tunnel, much to the Ogre Princess's annoyances, to which her anger sends Hook and his crew fleeing through the Tiara Tunnel.
