| |
| *[[Merry Mountain]], [[DS Airship Fortress]], all three [[Vancouver Velocity]] routes, [[RMX Rainbow Road 2]], and [[Wii DK Summit]] are the only courses in the game that were featured in at least one tour with festive trees but did not have any on the course.
| |
| **In Merry Mountain's case, this is due to it already having a Christmas theme.
