Desert Hills

From the Super Mario Wiki

This article is about the racecourse. For information about the Super Mario Bros. 3 world alternately known as "Desert Hill", see here.

Desert Hills, a race course that contains Pokeys.

Desert Hills is a course in Mario Kart DS. Pokeys run wild around parts of the course and the Angry Sun will throw Fire Snakes down at the drivers from the second lap on. The course looks like Desert Land from Super Mario Bros. 3. It also features a few bumps and has many sharp turns. The sand can slow even the lightest of karts down by huge amounts.

There is a considerably big shortcut in this course, taken by going straight across the hairpins, instead of going around. In 150cc, this shortcut requires only one mushroom, if the player jumps at the right time.

Desert Hills appears as a remade classic track in the Mario Kart Wii videogame, being the first racecourse of the Leaf Cup.

In Prima's Mario Kart Wii strategy guide, the editors forgot to flip the track in the Mirror Mode section; thus, there are two Desert Hills maps.
