'''Bowser Castle''' is the third | '''Bowser Castle''' is the third course of the [[Special Cup]] in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. This incarnation has less Thwomps than past Bowser's Castles, with only 4, and there are no lava spouts, unlike in numerous other versions. In the background is a forest consisting of dead trees and dark mountains, as well as a fiery orange sky. It features a rotating cylindrical bridge, a small chamber with a spinning floor, and four moving platforms above a portion of a large lava pit. The entrance to the castle is very similar to [[Bowser's Castle (Mario Kart: Double Dash!!)|the one]] in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]''. [[Bowser]] in the [[Hurricane (kart)|Hurricane]] is the staff ghost for this course. | ||

Racers will then encounter two paths; crossing a rotating cylindrical bridge, or driving down to a garden below it. The bridge provides a much faster route to go through, and if they fall off, racers can simply land in the garden, but will lose some time. The garden is partially paved and have grass parts that slows them down. Afterwards, racers will drive through metal grates with a large [[Dash Panel]] ramp that launches them to the final stretch that consists of four moving platforms, allowing racers to take a right turn to the finish line. The platforms move from left to right, but aren't difficult to traverse due to their moderate speed. Heavy racers can push lighter racers off during the ending section; however, some of the path has barriers preventing them from falling. The path from the platforms to the finish line is comprised of the same metal grates from earlier. | Racers will then encounter two paths; crossing a rotating cylindrical bridge, or driving down to a garden below it.

It is possible to dodge a [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Spiny Shell]] in this course. If the player is in 1st place while on the spinning bridge at the same time that someone fires a Spiny Shell, the racer can fall off of the bridge, causing the shell to miss the racer entirely. | It is possible to dodge a [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Spiny Shell]] in this course.
