It gets its name from the giant snowballs with eyes which roll through part of the track, crushing any racers that collide with them. The track's other features include a fork in the road, icy water which causes [[car]]s to bounce, and an igloo with green crystals inside. Snowball Valley is the only main course of Snowflake Mountain to take place during the daytime with a clear sky and no snowfall. The player needs to collect 6 [[Golden Balloon]]s to unlock this course, and later 14 for the [[Silver Coin Challenge]] (or Balloon Touch Challenge in the [[Nintendo DS]] remake). The car is the default vehicle for this course, but the player will be given the option of using the [[hovercraft]] either after completing the course or during a [[Time Trial]]. | ||
In the | In the Nintendo DS remake, the icy water no longer bounces cars and is instead like normal water. There is a portrait of [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] above the entrance to the igloo, and the crystals inside the igloo are different colors instead of just green. Snowball Valley was also given its own theme unlike the original Nintendo 64 version, where its theme is shared with [[Everfrost Peak]]. | ||
The official ''Diddy Kong Racing'' website suggested racing as Diddy on this track.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/19990202093719/http://www.dkr.com/snowball.html ''Diddy Kong Racing'' website (Snowball Valley)]</ref> | |||

The road curves gently to the right and features a [[Dash Panel|Zipper]] on the right followed by a small arch with some blue and yellow balloons under it. Ahead of the arch is a wide open snowfield with giant snowballs rolling around the middle of the track which can flatten racers, slowing them down. There is a blue balloon on each side of the road. Afterward, the racers go into an igloo, which contains a slight left turn followed by a sharp right turn. Right before exiting the igloo, there is a Zipper on the left, and right after it is a set of five balloons: two blue, two red, and one green. After one more right turn, the racers complete the lap. | The road curves gently to the right and features a [[Dash Panel|Zipper]] on the right followed by a small arch with some blue and yellow balloons under it.
