Canyon Layer is the fourth layer visited in the Underground World of Donkey Kong Bananza, occupying sublayers 300 to 302. It is a mountainous area with many Mine Cart tracks to help Donkey Kong and Pauline travel along the layer.
When Donkey Kong and Pauline first reach the Canyon Layer, they meet some Fractone whose bananas were stolen by Void Company, so they head to Longneck Plateau Village to ensure everyone is alright. There, a giraffe-shaped Fractone suggests the duo go to the Banandium Refinery, which they get to after destroying a Terravoider covering a Mine Cart. After using the Kong Bananza to break through the Banandium Refinery's entrance, Donkey Kong and Pauline are confronted by Grumpy Kong, who controls a giant Crockoid-like being to defeat them. After Grumpy Kong's defeat, he gives them a key that opens a Void Stake blocking the way to Sublayer 301. There, Void Company have set up Mad Mixer at the Banandium Refinery, which a Fractone orders Donkey Kong and Pauline to destroy before it explodes. The duo make their way around the refinery to destroy a Terravoider that allows them to use a set of Mine Carts that lead to Mad Mixer, which they destroy by throwing Boom Rocks at it. After escaping the refinery, they make it to Click-Clack Smoketstack and enter it to defeat Stompenclomper and enter the next layer.
