'''Chimp Caverns''' is the sixth and final world in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', located in the eye area of [[Donkey Kong Island]]. As its name suggests, Chimp Caverns is set in a large cavern, and it occurs before the boss fight against [[King K. Rool]] on [[Gang-Plank Galleon]]. It has five [[level]]s, and an additional sixth level, [[Necky Nutmare]], in the [[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Color)|Game Boy Color version]]. [[Master Necky Snr.]] is the boss of Chimp Caverns, and is fought at the bottom-right corner of the area. Chimp Caverns appears to be another industrial [[Kremling]] mining center like the previous world, [[Kremkroc Industries, Inc.]], considering the presence of fuel-run platforms in [[Tanked Up Trouble]] and metal platforms in [[Platform Perils]]. Chimp Caverns also features numerous mines, including one filled with mist. A body of water appears at the bottom of the world map, dividing the location in two. The Kongs can cross the water by using a bridge. A ladder is also shown at the left and right sides of the world map each.

Like the other worlds, Chimp Caverns's world map was changed for the [[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]]. Here, it has a more volcanic appearance, as shown from the cracked rocks below. There are also some [[Mine Cart]]s on a track adjacent to [[Funky's Flights|Funky's Fishing]]. The large pond from the previous two versions was also removed, along with the ladder on the east side of the map. [[Cranky's Cabin|Cranky's Hut]] is also located on top of a rocky structure, followed by two smaller ones.

The [[Cave]] world from ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' is thematically similar and has been suggested to be the same location.<ref>KynanPearson (August 12, 2021).
