Cherry Rally
- Not to be confused with Cherry Cup, which also uses a Double Cherry as the emblem.
The Cherry Rally is the fifth rally in Mario Kart World, represented by a Double Cherry, mirroring the Banana Cup. It begins towards the south of the map at Peach Beach, before taking racers southwest until they reach Whistlestop Summit, before racers go northwest to reach the final checkpoint at Desert Hills.[1] Four courses in this rally appear in no other rally: Dino Dino Jungle, Koopa Troopa Beach, DK Spaceport, and Whistlestop Summit. Coincidentally, all four of those courses are the main checkpoints of this rally. This is the only rally where racers complete the course driving the final section in reverse.
The Double Cherry was previously used to represent the icon for the Cherry Cup in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.
