'''Weighty Way''' is the fortieth level in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]'', as well as the third level in the [[Cliff]] world.
'''Weighty Way''' is the fortieth level in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]'', as well as the third level in the [[Cliff]] world.


This level takes place high in the mountains, where [[Donkey Kong|Donkey]] and [[Diddy Kong]] must rely on weights to progress. Most of these weights have another weight attached to them by a rope, similar to the [[Scale Lift]]s from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', so if the [[Kong]]s stand on one side of the weight, causing it to move down a bit, the other moves up. Sometimes the weights have giant rocks or enemies on them, so the primates have to destroy them first if they want to use the weights to help themselves reach a high area. However, if the Kongs stand on one side of the weights too long, it may break, causing them to fall and lose an [[Extra Life Balloon]]. Another common obstacle in this level is [[Blast Barrel]]s, which blast the Kongs higher up the mountains. Enemies in this level include [[Tiki Buzz]]es, [[Flaming Tiki Buzz]]es, and [[Skellirex]]es.

In the [[Donkey Kong Country Returns#Time Attack|Time Attack]] mode of the game, a time of 1:28:00 is needed to get a gold medal, a time of 2:00:00 for silver, and a time of 2:50:00 for bronze.

As the Kongs approach the end of the level, they can find a bridge leading to a dead end. On the bridge are bananas and a [[Banana Coin]]. To the right of the checkpoint is a spring that can bounce them onto another set of weights. They must make the lower weight to the right rise, but a giant stone block weighs it down. Between the two weights that are connected is a spring that can help them bounce back up to the left weight after they destroy the rock on the opposite one. When the stone is gone, they can make it rise and let them reach the top of a spiky platform. Following it is another weight that is lifted high into the air by a giant boulder found in the background connected to it by a rope. When they stand on it, it lowers and enables them to access an area under another spiky wall. If they remain on it too long, it can fall. Ahead of this weight is a solid area of land with a spring on the end of it.

There is a platform with grassy turf on it above here that the Kongs can grab onto by using the spring. With their weight on the platform, it slides to the right while being held up by a giant boulder and leads them above a Barrel Cannon in an abyss. As they wait in the cannon, the weight moves to the left back into its original position. When it is near this position, the Kongs can shoot out of the cannon and into a nearby Blast Barrel that can then blast them above the weight. If they manage to get on top of it, they can find the third DK Barrel and make it move to the right, where there is a small, solid platform with a Skellirex, a cactus, and bananas on it. Another pair of weights is after this, and a Barrel Cannon is under the weight on the right, which is placed next to another Barrel Cannon. The heroes can shoot onto the platform with the first Barrel Cannon and then jump to the second to shoot farther up the mountain. Here, they land on a flat section of the cliff, where there is a Skellirex, a cactus, and some blue plants. A platform with climbable turf on the end of it is nearby with the letter G on it. If they Kongs grab onto the turf or stand on the object, it begins to slide down the long bar that it is connected to, pulling them towards many bananas. When it reaches the end of the bar, the primates can find a Barrel Cannon under them that they can enter to be shot to a solid area of land with the [[Slot Machine Barrel]].

|Shortly after the letter O, the Kongs can find a hidden entrance to a [[bonus room]] just before the part in the level where they have to use a weight to move a platform with grassy turf on it towards them. In the bonus round, they must shoot back and forth between two Barrel Cannons, trying to collect two [[Banana Coin]]s and eighty bananas. At the same time, they must avoid a Blast Barrel moving in the center of the area that can blast them out of the bonus stage. If everything is collected within thirty seconds, a Puzzle Piece appears.
