Along with [[Wuhu Loop]] and [[Maka Wuhu]], Rainbow Road only has one lap instead of three. It is divided into three sections to resemble laps, with banners at the end of each section. It is the only course in the game with three sections to not take place on [[Wuhu Island]].

The race starts off with a short straightaway, following with a sharp turn to the right, then left, going around a planet. Afterward, there are three platforms that the drivers drive and jump off each one (similar to the area before the temple in [[3DS DK Jungle|DK Jungle]]). Next, players drive around another planet, but are spiraling down as they do so, with drop-offs allowing for tricks. The track then comes to a rainbow-spotted [[Mushroom Trampoline]], and then a sharp right turn. After the turn, players have the opportunity to snatch some item boxes and coins on a waving road (similar to ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'').
