Mount Wario

Mount Wario is the fourth and final race track in the Star Cup of Mario Kart 8. This course takes place on a huge mountain where players must drive from the top to the bottom (similar to DK Summit in Mario Kart Wii and DK Mountain in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!). This is the only new course in Mario Kart 8 to have a three section lap. Super Mario 3D World's Beach theme is remixed in some parts of this track's song.

Course Layout
The course is a one lap race down a snowy mountain, split between three sections (like Wuhu Loop, Maka Wuhu, and Rainbow Road from Mario Kart 7, even as the remake of Rainbow Road from Mario Kart 64 in Mario Kart 8). It starts off in a large helicopter placed at the top of the mountain, with the racers driving out of it before landing onto the path. After a few downhill turns, the second portion of the track enters an icy cave, with two anti-gravity sections ending with a hang-glider segment. Two icebergs with boost pads are placed just after, before a boost ramp leads the racers into the Wario Dam area. After two 90º turns, there is another anti-gravity section with racers driving along the side of the dam, with boost pads going down streams (like in Shy Guy Falls).

After that, racers soon enter a snowy forest, that spilts into two paths to start off. Provided the player has a mushroom, they can cut in between the two paths to a hidden glider ramp with an item box on top. These two paths meet up to an area with rocks sticking out of the snow, which can provide a boost via tricks. Soon enough, racers enter the third section, which starts going down a skiing area with cheering Toads, Yoshis, and Shy Guys along with a Jumbotron. After a few turns, racers enter the final anti-gravity section, which goes down a ski jumping ramp with boost pads placed on various parts of the ramp. The section ends with a hang-glider section, where three boost rings are placed to help racers out. After two more turns, the race ends in an area next to a large log cabin, where the finish line awaits them.

Shortcuts
In the forest, players can cut in between the two paths to a hidden glider ramp by using a mushroom.

Trivia

 * This is the first course in the Mario Kart series that never loops, which means the racers stop once they reach the finish line.
