'''Bowser's Castle''' (also called '''Bowser Castle''' in some games) is a common race course found in the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series. The course usually features hazards such as [[lava]] pits, [[Thwomp]]s, [[fireball]]s and sharp turns. Due to these hazards, it is one of the most difficult courses in each game, similar to [[Rainbow Road]]. | |||
In ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]'' and its succeeding games, Bowser's Castle is the penultimate course of the [[Special Cup]]. In ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'', Vanilla Lake 2 and Banshee Boardwalk were the penultimate courses in the [[Special Cup]]. In ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'', there were multiple versions of this track, as with all the other courses except for Rainbow Road. Multiple versions of Bowser Castle are also featured in ''Mario Kart: Super Circuit'', this time being the only course to do so. Also unlike ''Super Mario Kart'', this game gives each of them an individual background.{{br}} | |||
