'''Mount Wario''' is the fourth and final race track in the [[Star Cup]] of ''[[Mario Kart 8]]''. This course takes place on a huge mountain owned by [[Wario]], where players must drive from the top to the bottom (similar to [[DK Summit]] in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' and [[DK Mountain]] in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]''). This is the only new course in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' to be divided into three sections instead of three laps.

The course is a three section race down a snowy mountain, split between three sections (like [[Wuhu Loop]], [[Maka Wuhu]], and [[Rainbow Road (3DS)|Rainbow Road]] from ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' and the remake of [[Rainbow Road (N64)|Rainbow Road]] from ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'' in ''Mario Kart 8''). It starts off in a large helicopter placed at the top of the mountain, with the racers driving out of it before landing onto the path. After a few downhill turns, the second portion of the track enters an icy cave, with two anti-gravity sections ending with a hang-glider segment. Two icebergs with boost pads are placed just after, before a boost ramp leads the racers into the '''Wario Dam''' area. After two 90º turns, there is another anti-gravity section with racers driving along the side of the dam, with boost pads going down streams (like in [[Shy Guy Falls]]).  

After that, racers soon enter a snowy forest, that splits into two paths to start off. These two paths meet up to an area with rocks sticking out of the snow, which can provide a boost via tricks. Soon enough, racers enter the third section, which starts going down a skiing area with cheering [[Toad (species)|Toads]], [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshis]], and [[Shy Guy|Shy Guys]] along with a Jumbotron. After a few turns, racers enter the final anti-gravity section, which goes down a ski jumping ramp with boost pads placed on various parts of the ramp. The section ends with a hang-glider section, where three boost rings are placed to help racers out. After two more turns, the race ends in an area next to a large log cabin, where the finish line awaits them.

*In the forest, one can cut in between the two paths to a hidden glider ramp by using a [[Mushroom]].

*This is the second track in the ''[[Mario Kart]]'' series that does not end at the same place in which the race started, along with [[Maka Wuhu]].

**Unlike Maka Wuhu, however, Mount Wario is the first track in the ''Mario Kart'' series that is not a loop.

***Due to this being the only course without being a full loop, the players actually turn around and stop their vehicles after finishing.

*This is the first and only track to have separate soundtracks for each section instead of using the same soundtrack and speeding it up in the final lap.

*This is the first Wario-themed course to not have [[Wario]] as the staff ghost (the staff ghost for this course is Waluigi).

*The helicopter is shaped like Wario wearing a jet-pack and skis.
