'''Mount Wario''' is the fourth and last race of the [[Star Cup]] in ''[[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 [[GCN DK Mountain|DK Mountain]] in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' and [[Wii DK Summit|DK Summit]] in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'').

This is one of the five courses in the game (the others being {{classic-link|N64|Rainbow Road}}, [[Big Blue]], {{classic-link|3DS|Rainbow Road}} and {{classic-link|Tour|Los Angeles Laps}}) 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<!--DO NOT ADD MAKA WUHU/WUHU MOUNTAIN LOOP, while it has a different finish line position, racers race round back to the starting line after a race, making it a looping 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 beginning when racers enter the forest.

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.

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 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]].

Like [[Twisted Mansion]], [[Electrodrome]], [[Bowser's Castle (Mario Kart 8)|Bowser's Castle]], [[Excitebike Arena]], and [[Piranha Plant Cove]], this course has an opening animation, which is the front of the plane opening up and the ramp being lowered. However, unlike in the aforementioned five courses, where the animation occurs during the race countdown, this course's animation starts as the course intro ends and finishes right before the countdown.
