'''Maple Treeway''' is the third race course of the [[Star Cup]] in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]''. It takes place in a large forest during autumn. The track consists of racing on tree branches, on the treetops and even within the trees themselves. [[Big Wiggler]]s appear on the treetops, and driving into them will hinder any racer. [[Leaf pile]]s flank various parts of the track, and driving through them reveals [[Dash Mushroom|Mushroom]]s, [[Banana]]s, and rarely, [[Super Star|Star]]s. The course's name may be a portmanteau of the words "tree" and "{{wp|freeway}}."

Maple Treeway reappears in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' as the fourth and final course of the [[Leaf Cup]], in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' starting with the [[Halloween Tour (2020)|2020 Halloween Tour]], and in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as the fourth and final course of the [[Rock Cup]] in the [[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]. It, alongside [[Wii Mushroom Gorge|Mushroom Gorge]], [[Wii Coconut Mall|Coconut Mall]], and [[Wii Koopa Cape|Koopa Cape]], have appeared in four games in a row (every game since their debuts) if one counts the two ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' titles as the same game.

A slower, lower-pitched, and more sinister version of the music used for Maple Treeway is used for [[Bowser's Castle (Mario Kart Wii)|Bowser's Castle]]. Another arrangement of the song is heard in the second half of the credits music along with the music for [[Luigi Circuit (Mario Kart Wii)|Luigi Circuit]]/[[Mario Circuit (Mario Kart Wii)|Mario Circuit]] and [[Wii Moo Moo Meadows|Moo Moo Meadows]]. In ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'', a slower-paced Eastern rendition of Maple Treeway's music plays in the [[Tranquil Pipes Teahouse]] of [[Shogun Studios]].

*The player can use the left Dash Panel at the end and end up out of bounds, where they must use a mushroom or more to get back on track just before the first hairpin. They then must use the cannon and, upon landing, turn around and use another mushroom to get to the branch before the bridge. If the glitch is done correctly, the lap will count.<ref>July (July 19, 2023). [https://youtu.be/BgIX3tiNARQ MKWii Maple Treeway glitch]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved July 19, 2023.</ref>

[[List of Mario Kart Wii tournaments#November 2008 Tournament 1|November 2008's first tournament]] required players to collect 15 coins hidden in leaf piles on the tree top section. Additionally, there are now five [[Big Wiggler]]s roaming around the area. This tournament was later repeated as the first tournament of November 2010 and the first tournament of March 2012. It was also repeated as the second tournament of May 2013, but with a vehicle restriction of karts only.

Maple Treeway returns in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as part of the [[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]] downloadable content. It is the fourth and last course of the [[Rock Cup]], and was added in the third wave of the DLC. It has received significant visual upgrades compared to its appearance in ''Mario Kart Tour''.<ref>Nintendo (November 21, 2022). [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2iaCRaF8ET8 Mario Kart 8 Deluxe — Booster Course Pass - Wave 3 Release Date - Nintendo Switch]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved November 21, 2022.</ref> The halfpipe from the ''Mario Kart Tour'' version of the course is maintained, making it one of two courses in the third wave to reintroduce the mechanic to ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'', the other being [[Merry Mountain]]. Also like in Merry Mountain, the halfpipe also has the appearance and effect of an [[Antigravity Panel]]. The Dash Panels along the shortcut that were removed in ''Mario Kart Tour'' were restored. The [[Big Wiggler]]s also now move around differently and will spin out any player that collides with it at a high rate of speed. Like ''Mario Kart 7'', the mini map now has shaded areas signifying roads normally covered by the large maple tree section, specifically for the road directly after the first gliding section and the bridge leading to the tree's exit.
