This course mainly takes place on clouds, a giant beanstalk (similar to [[GBA Sky Garden|Sky Garden]]), and on an airship (like [[DS Airship Fortress|Airship Fortress]]). Several of Bowser's airships are seen flying in the background. It shares its name with Sky Garden in some other languages. | ||

Shortly after, there is a slight right turn and a ramp with some [[Item Box]]es on it leading onto a Bowser Balloon that characters can bounce on, similar to [[Mushroom Trampoline]]s. The racers will then continue racing on a cloud, with a zigzagging set of turns and a small split route with another Bowser Balloon. After a U-turn, they jump onto an airship, where the player encounters two paths, both of which meet up right before a cannon, which launches the player to a anti-gravity metal track inside a storm cloud. On the track, there are many [[Dash Panel]]s, but once in a while, lightning will strike them, which the racers have to avoid or else they will get knocked out. The lightning also deactivates the Dash Panels when active. This section then ends to start a gliding section, which touches down on a giant stone [[? Block]], a reference to how Beanstalks grow out of ? Blocks in ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' games. There is then one more right turn before the finish line.{{br|left}} | ||

The ending portion of both variations uses parts of [[Sky Station Galaxy]] and [[Gusty Garden Galaxy]]'s music from the ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' [[Super Mario Galaxy 2|games]]. The course's music also reappears as a new arrangement, which combines the two variations, in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'' on the [[Mario Circuit (Super Smash Bros. for Wii U)|Mario Circuit]] stage and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' on any ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' stage. | ||
