'''Mount Wario''' is the fourth and | '''Mount Wario''' is the fourth and final race track in the [[Star Cup]] of ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. This course takes place on a mountain summit and ski resort themed after [[Wario]], where players must race from the top to the bottom (similar to [[Wii DK Summit|DK Summit]] in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' and [[GCN DK Mountain|DK Mountain]] in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]''). | ||
This is one of the | This is one of the three courses in the game (the others being {{classic-link|N64|Rainbow Road}} and [[Big Blue]]) to be divided into three sections rather than three laps. Mount Wario, along with Big Blue, is one of the only two courses in the ''Mario Kart'' series to not be a looping race course, so when the racer finishes the race, they will simply sit at the end of the course. These two courses also have separate music tracks for each section instead of playing a sped-up, higher-pitched version of the course's music for the final lap/section. The second segment of the course is the only section that has two separate music tracks, with the first version playing in the cave and dam sections and the second version playing from just after the dam until the end of the section. | ||

The course is a race down a snowy mountain split into three sections. Section one starts in a large plane hovering over the top of the mountain, with the racers driving off a ramp before landing on a path at the summit of the mountain. After a few icy downhill turns, some of which are bisected, the course enters a cave, as well as passes the checkpoint marking the start of the second segment. | The course is a race down a snowy mountain split into three sections (like [[Wuhu Loop]], [[Maka Wuhu]], and [[3DS Rainbow Road|Rainbow Road]] from ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' and the remake of [[N64 Rainbow Road|Rainbow Road]] from ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'' and [[Big Blue]] in ''Mario Kart 8''). | ||

After a few icy downhill turns, some of which are bisected, the course enters a cave, as well as passes the checkpoint marking the start of the second segment. | |||
Section two starts inside the cave, with two [[anti-gravity]] sections ending with a hang-glider segment. Two flat rocks with [[Dash Panel]]s are placed just after, before a boost ramp leads the racers into a hydroelectric dam. After two 90° turns, there is another anti-gravity section with racers driving along the side of the dam, with Dash Panels going down the streams (like in [[Shy Guy Falls]]). The player must steer the kart at the direction of the Dash Panels in order to get the speed boost. | Section two starts inside the cave, with two [[anti-gravity]] sections ending with a hang-glider segment.

Section three starts by traveling down a slalom and mogul course, with cheering [[Toad (species)|Toads]], [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshis]], and [[Shy Guy]]s alongside the track. After a few turns, racers enter the final anti-gravity section, which goes down a ski jumping ramp with Dash Panels placed on various parts of the ramp. The section ends with a hang-glider section off the jump, where three [[Ring (Mario Kart series)|rings]] are placed to help racers out. After two more turns at the landing area, the track reaches the [[Finish Line (object)|finish line]]. | Section three starts by traveling down a slalom and mogul course, with cheering [[Toad (species)|Toads]], [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshis]], and [[Shy Guy]]s alongside the track.
