The '''Bowser Monument'''<ref>Musa, Alexander. ''Mario Kart 8'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 130. "'''''Bowser Monument:''' This massive centerpiece is alive! It punches at the course, sending shockwaves through the track.''"</ref> is a giant [[Bowser Statue]] in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. It is the centerpiece of [[Bowser's Castle (Wii U)|Bowser's Castle]], and it is featured in the course's intro. As the racers drive past it, the Bowser Monument punches the track, sending ripples through it that can be used for [[trick]]s. The track splits into two, with the Bowser Monument in the middle of both paths, and it alternatively punches a [[Dash Panel]] on each side of the track. If the player reaches the Dash Panel before it gets punched by the Bowser Monument's fist, it's recommended to hit the brakes until after the Dash Panel reactivates.

It greatly resembles the other large [[Bowser Statue]]s from ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'' as well as [[Mecha Bowser]] from ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', but intermixed with lava, and punching instead of shooting fire.
