'''Tracker Barrel Trek''' is the fourteenth [[level]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and the fourth level of [[Cotton Top Cove]]. It is a vertical level taking place at a waterfall, and [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] frequently have to use the [[Tracker Barrel]]s to progress, either by crossing gaps or reaching higher ledges. Green [[Buzz (enemy)|Buzz]]es serve as both the main enemy and obstacle of the level, and each of them are behind the waterfalls during Tracker Barrel sections. Shortly after the [[Star Barrel]], the Kongs can optionally jump into an [[Animal Barrel|Ellie Barrel]] to transform into [[Ellie the Elephant]]. Ellie can suck in water from her trunk and spit out water projectiles at enemies. It is the only way that Buzzes cat be defeated in the level. A [[No Animal Sign]] is just before the end of the level. By crossing it, the Kongs return to normal, and a [[Iron Barrel|Steel Barrel]] appears from the sign. The Kongs have only one chance to use the Steel Barrel to defeat the level's [[Koin]].

At the end of the level, Ellie must cross the No Animal Sign to transform back into the Kongs, along with releasing a Steel Barrel. Dixie or Kiddy must pick up the Steel Barrel and throw it to the left from the platform above [[Koin]]. The Steel Barrel bounces off a wall behind Koin, who must face the right toward the Kongs, and then hits Koin from behind, thus defeating him. The Kongs are rewarded with the [[DK Coin]].

*'''''Collect 70 Stars!''''': Just before the letter O, the Kongs must go to the right at the edge of a cliff. Dixie must be in the lead to use her [[Helicopter Spin]] to hover right into a hidden [[Bonus Barrel]] following after four bananas. In the [[Bonus Level]], the Kongs must collect 70 [[Star (Donkey Kong Country series)|star]]s within 25 seconds by blasting from two Tracker Barrels over a chasm. Once the Kongs collect every star, the [[Bonus Coin (Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!)|Bonus Coin]] appears for them to obtain.

*'''''Bash the Baddies!''''': Shortly the Kongs transform into Ellie, she can find a small slope leading behind a waterfall. Ellie must jump into a Tracker Barrel to the left and go to two Buzzes in front of a Bonus Barrel. She must shoot water projectiles at the Buzzes and enter the Bonus Barrel. In the Bonus Level, Ellie must defeat seven Knik-Knaks within 25 seconds. The Knik-Knaks are hovering over a gap, and Ellie can only move across it inside a few Tracker Barrels. She can defeat the Knik-Knaks by either jumping onto them or spitting water projectiles at them. Once Ellie defeat every Knik-Knak, the Bonus Coin appears on a platform to the right.
