'''Rainbow Road''' is the last course of the [[Special Cup]] in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]''. The course has once again increased in length compared to previous renditions, but still shares a similar theme to its [[Rainbow Road (Mario Kart Wii)|predecessor]]. Instead of floating above the atmosphere, it now takes place around the [[Moon]], with several small asteroids in the background. As a result, unlike past Rainbow Roads, this incarnation features the player driving on off-road surfaces such as the Moon itself and rings of a planetoid resembling {{wp|Saturn}}. It is the first Rainbow Road course to contain one lap divided into three sections, being followed by {{classic-link|N64|Rainbow Road}} in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]''. Due to its length, it is the longest course in the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series, and as such is also the longest Rainbow Road in the series; however, the ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'' iteration of [[N64 Rainbow Road|Rainbow Road]] takes more time to complete, as it is three laps long instead of one.

This Rainbow Road returns as a retro course in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''. While not the only course divided into sections in the game due to the presence of [[N64 Kalimari Desert#N64 Kalimari Desert 2|N64 Kalimari Desert 2]], [[Tour Tokyo Blur|Tokyo Blur 4]], and [[Tour New York Minute|New York Minute 4]] or the only 3-lap (or in this course's case, 3-section) track in the game due to the existence of [[GCN Baby Park|GCN Baby Park T]], it is the only track to have both traits. It also returns in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as the fourth and final course in the [[Moon Cup]] in the [[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]].
