The '''Bank of the Wild River''' is a location found in ''[[Wario Land 3]]'' of the [[Wario Land (series)|''Wario Land'' series]]. It serves as the fourth of six levels that can be found on the north side of the [[Music Box World]]. [[Wario]] can come here after he found the second Music Box. The level gets unlocked simultaneously with another one: the [[Tidal Coast]].

The level-design itself revolves mostly around the aforementioned river and its surroundings. The starting point of the level lies in the riverbed and the main area is set atop of overgrown black rocks. The water of the river is in steady movement, resulting in strong currents that sweep Wario away if he falls into the water. Some of the rocks are hollow and have rooms hidden in them. A damp crystal cave filled with [[Kobat]]s lies near the river, accessible through a ledge next to the starting point. Further up the stream lies an area full of vines which eventually lead to another cave. A large fish creature, called [[Pesce]] lives there.

The Trident is hidden inside the [[Treasure Chest|Grey Treasure Chest]] which is located right at the start of the level. However, the [[Key|Grey Key]] needed to open the chest can only be found up the river. Wario has to travel upstreams on foot, collect the key, and return to the start, riding the currents and evading the sea urchins.

Once Wario found the Trident and the Yellow Spell Book from the Tidal Coast, he can use both items to summon a heavy lightning storm above the south side of the Music Box World. Numerous bolts then rain from the sky onto the land. One of the bolts hits the river on that side, tearing the ground apart and revealing [[The Steep Canyon]].

To win against Pesce, Wario has to feed the fish/mouse hybrid cross with cheese, until he gets too heavy to swim and sinks down to the ground, where the strong currents will catch him and sweep him away. His body mass will then block the currents from escaping, which makes the Green Treasure Chest reachable. Various insects hover over the water surface to aid Wario in his intentions: A dragonfly that carries him, and flies carrying infinite amounts of cheese.

Once the Wire Wizard has been freed from the chest, he travels to various levels and produces patches of wire, which Wario can use to climb to higher locations and reach more treasuries. The affected levels are the Tidal Coast and the [[Tower of Revival]].
