'''Rock Rock Mountain''' (known as '''Alpine Pass''' in the British English version) is the fourth and final race course in the [[Flower Cup]] of ''[[Mario Kart 7]]''. It takes place on a mountain with pipes and a forest. A part of this course's music is an arrangement of the title theme from the [[NES]] game ''{{wp|Mach Rider}}''.

Along with [[3DS Cheep Cheep Lagoon|Cheep Cheep Lagoon]] and [[3DS DK Jungle|DK Jungle]], this course was playable in demo versions of the game.

The track starts on a curvy cliff road on the side of a mountain. The road leads to a cave in the mountain with [[Swoop]]s flying and columns blocking the way. After exiting the cave there is a sharp downhill bridge into a [[Glide Ramp]]. The ramp opens up the glider, and there are pipes that must be dodged while gliding down into a valley. One of the pipes blows air in the second lap. Racers land in the forest, driving through trees and felled trunks before hitting a second, but smaller, gliding section. The road then turns to the right, and into a steep uphill climb up the mountain past rolling rocks and [[Dash Panel]]s. At the top of the mountain is a glider ramp, leading in to the finish line.

====Shortcuts====

After the second glider it is possible to cut through the grass only with one mushroom, and the first turn is cuttable with the Peach Parasol or the Flower Glider, as they can rise higher in the air. On time trials it is also possible to use a mushroom in the air to skip the windy cliffs at the start.

Rock Rock Mountain reappears in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''. Here, the course recieved some changes. The mountain is now a tan color, instead of dirt. The glide ramp after the cave now resembles the T variation ramps. This course is a favorite of [[Yoshi]], [[Donkey Kong]], [[Waluigi]], [[Yoshi|Yoshi (Reindeer)]], [[Toadette|Toadette (Explorer)]], and [[Wario|Wario (Hiker)]]. It is also a favorite of [[Mario|Mario (Happi)]] if he is at level 3 and [[Penguin Mario|Penguin Luigi]] if he is at level 6.

As with each course in the game, Rock Rock Mountain has variants known as '''Rock Rock Mountain R''' and '''Rock Rock Mountain T'''. The T version of Rock Rock Mountain is one of four courses in ''Mario Kart Tour'' that does not start in the same place as the original, the others being [[3DS Rainbow Road]] T and R/T, and [[Singapore Speedway|Singapore Speedway R/T]]. In this case, the starting line is now midway through the forest after the first Glide Ramp.

==Trivia==

*In ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', Rock Rock Mountain has the longest gap between reappearances in tours, with there being ten tours total between its appearances in the [[Pirate Tour]] and the [[Berlin Tour]]. It is the only non-city course with this distinction. Also, it is the only course that has yet to receive a R/T variation among the courses which are available since launch.
