Yoshi drifting on Wuhu Mountain Loop in the evening.

Wuhu Island is a large, tropical, tourist-filled island, inhabited by Miis and located in the Pacific Ocean that appears in some popular Nintendo games, including Wii Fit, Wii Sports Resort, and Pilotwings Resort. It also appears in two tracks in Mario Kart 7. The tracks include Wuhu Island Loop, which has the drivers race around the entire island and Wuhu Mountain Loop, which has the drivers race around and inside Maka Wuhu, the volcano on the island, as well as a Battle Stage, Wuhu Town, which allows the drivers to battle all around the town area of the island. However, it is not possible to drive over to New Town.

The Island Loop track takes place in the day, and the Maka Wuhu takes place in the evening, while Wuhu Town takes place at night, which are all three of the selectable times in the Island Flyovers of Wii Sports Resort and Pilotwings Resort for the 3DS. Wuhu Island also has a sister island known as Wedge Island where golfing activities take place in Wii Sports Resort. Apart from this it has many smaller deserted islands, two of which have fireworks shot from.

Overview of Region

Wuhu Island

This island, although relatively small, has alot of features, both natural and man-made, to suite many sporting activities. Wuhu Island can only be reached by ferry or sea plane, the latter being quite inconvenient considering Wuhu is found in the middle of the Pacific. The first thing you come across in Wuhu is their mini harbour and main town, which currently has no name. The harbour has a few wooden piers for docking speed boats and yachts, and a larger concrete higher pier for a ferry or cruise liner to dock with. Currently, the Queen Peach (a largish cruise liner which is described as being a 5-star one) uses this docking pier. Walking further inside you come across the main town. There are a few residential and commercial buildings, together with a chapel, a basket ball court, a bowling alley and two or three manors. The town also has a square with a fountain, arch and a few benches occupying it. As seen in Wii Fit Plus, parades take place over here. On the outskirts of the town is a jogging plaza where joggers and also their pet dogs or cats meet for a lap around the island. This plaza is basically a small hexagonally shaped area made of concrete with grass on top. Moving to the right on the town, one can find the Red Gate Bridge. This is a mini red cable-stayed bridge which crosses over a river for automobiles and people to crossover. Moving up one finds a street known as Palm Tree Avenue.

Wedge Island and Others

Wild and Plant Life

Most of the plant life include trees, especially palm trees. The animals are mostly birds, such as owls and ducks. There are also fish and whales. On certain games, however, coyote howls can be heard in the ruins area, implying they live there too. There are also dogs and cats kept as pets but presumably not naturally occurring on the island.
