Level 2 is the second level in Donkey Kong Country Barrel Maze. This is one of two levels to feature hippos, as well as the first level to feature the Enemy Barrel.

Overview[edit]

The barrel starts on a stretch of ground surrounded by a stream, which has to be crossed using two hippos that bob up and down in the water. The next section involves the barrel consecutively falling off two ledges and crossing two streams of water using hippos. Bananas can be picked up on the bank at the base of each ledge to regain health after fall damage; however, an Enemy Barrel can also be encountered on the second bank. After this section, the barrel should steer 90° and carefully descend a cliff, then use a series of hippos to cross the following cascade streams and eventually reach the goal.
