Waterfall Basin

The Waterfall Basin is a location in the Cascade Kingdom in Super Mario Odyssey. It is the starting area of the kingdom where Mario finds himself after leaving the Cap Kingdom. During later visits, the Odyssey lands in this area. Initially, there is a Checkpoint Flag in this area, which permanently vanishes in later visits since it is replaced with the one on the Odyssey. South of the Checkpoint Flag, on a small ledge overlooking the abyss, are three regional coins. Nearby is a pole Mario can climb, with a spark pylon on top. A Cap Cloud is also nearby.

Shortly ahead, between the basin and the waterfall, are a few piles of dirt and fossils. Additionally, there is a Chain Chomp in the area, as well as a Crazy Cap shop run by Bonneters which appears later in the game. The Roving Racers are found here after completing the story, and this area serves as the starting point for the Cascade Kingdom's Koopa Freerunning race.
