'''Choco Mountain''' is a course in ''[[Mario Kart 64]]''. It is the third course in the [[Flower Cup]] and features falling rocks as obstacles. A third through it, a chocolate pyramid can be seen. The course's chocolate aesthetic is reminiscent of the [[Choco Island]] racecourses from ''[[Super Mario Kart]]''. The course reappears in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' in the [[Leaf Cup]] and in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' as the signature course of the [[Exploration Tour]]. In the [[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' – Booster Course Pass]], it reappears as the third course of the [[Golden Dash Cup]]. | |||
'' | In the 50cc difficulty level and the Time Trials mode, the curve is protected by a banister where the players could not fall into the trap; however, the banister disappears if the player chooses a higher difficulty level than 50cc. In ''Mario Kart DS'', there is no banister present at all. In ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'', the banister is present in all difficulty levels. | ||
In ''Mario Kart 64'', this course's music also plays on [[N64 Block Fort|Block Fort]] and [[Double Deck]] during [[Battle Mode]]. | |||
==Course layout== | |||
The race starts out on a straight road that eventually leads to a curve to the right. The curve also features a twisty road and a row of [[Item Box]]es for players to use. After the curve and the twist, the road continues curving until a U-turn leads players into a longer straight road. This straight road leads to an overhang, where players originally started. | |||
Past the overhang, another curve to the left takes players to the bottom left part of the course, where the road is somewhat straight, but not as straight as the preceding road. Players then turn left, pass a row of item boxes, and drive over a small hill that makes players fly. After the small hill, there is a somewhat sharp curve to the left. In the 50cc races and the Time Trials mode, banisters are set to prevent players from falling into the water below. However, the banisters are not present in the 100cc, 150cc, and EXTRA modes. [[Boulder]]s fly out on the sharp curve to flatten and slow down any player that is present in their landing spot. There is a body of water present on the other side of the curve that the boulders fall into. | |||
After the falling boulders, a right curve takes players to a straight road, with the road below them to the left. If players fall into the road below, they must race the part they were just in, also with the penalty of losing any position if players are behind them. After this dangerous place is a curve to the left, with three sets of hills that also send players flying into the finish line, where they start the track again. | |||

This course returns as a retro course as the second course in the [[Leaf Cup]]. Not many changes were made, aside from the graphics, and the banister that protects the player in ''Mario Kart 64'' in 50cc and Time Trials was removed completely. The course was available in Wi-Fi. In Mission 4-6, [[Donkey Kong]] has to destroy 10 [[Item Box]]es while avoiding the [[Fake Item Box|fake ones]]. | |||

Choco Mountain reappears once more in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', where it makes its debut in the [[ | Choco Mountain reappears once more in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', where it makes its debut in the [[Exploration Tour]]. The starting banner has been changed to a wooden sign with a blue, three-dimensional ''Mario Kart'' logo, and more signs were added to the track. There is now a scarce amount of foliage on the borders of the road. A pit and some dead trees have been added at the left of the first turn and some small ramps were added just before the face of the mountain. After entering through the mountain, the track now has a cavern section with [[Swoop]]s, crystals and off-road shortcuts. A [[Glide Ramp]] with a pit below and on the right has been added at the end of the cavern. A concrete wall and [[Fish Bone]] fossils were added in the part with the boulders. The banister that was originally present in ''Mario Kart 64'' in 50cc and Time Trials reappears in all difficulty levels, but only from the curve right after the boulders. The last turn now has a off-road part that the players can use as a shortcut. The player can now perform a [[Jump Boost]] by hitting the broken bridge. | ||
The course is a favorite of [[Pink Gold Peach]], [[King Bob-omb]], [[Mario|Mario (Chef)]], [[Captain Toad]], [[Luigi|Luigi (Lederhosen)]], [[Tanooki Mario]], [[Mario|Mario (Samurai)]], [[Princess Daisy|Daisy (Farmer)]], [[Wario|Wario (Hiker)]], [[Donkey Kong Jr.|Donkey Kong Jr. (SNES)]], [[Waluigi|Waluigi (Vampire)]], and the [[Mii|Nabbit Mii Racing Suit]]. It is also a favorite of [[Yoshi (species)|Black Yoshi]], [[Nabbit]], and [[Shy Guy|Shy Guy (Pastry Chef)]] if they are at level 6. | |||
Choco Mountain also has a Reversed variant, a Trick variant, and a Reversed/Trick variant, referred to as '''Choco Mountain R''', '''Choco Mountain T''', and '''Choco Mountain R/T''', respectively. The former two were introduced along with the normal variant in the [[Exploration Tour]], while the latter was introduced in the [[Wedding Tour]]. The reverse and trick variant replaces the gliding section with many ramps. | |||
Like [[SNES Donut Plains 1|Donut Plains 1]], [[SNES Koopa Troopa Beach 2|Koopa Troopa Beach 2]], and [[N64 Frappe Snowland|Frappe Snowland]], it retains its original music, rather than using the ''Mario Kart DS'' arrangement. | |||

Choco Mountain returns as the third course of the [[Golden Dash Cup]] in the [[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]] DLC for ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. It is heavily patterned after its appearance in ''Mario Kart Tour'', though with updated graphics. The ramps before the cavern section have been removed, as was the ability to trick off the broken bridge. The track also receives a Western-inspired arrangement with harmonica, fiddle, banjo, and electric guitar.<ref>Nintendo (February 9, 2022). [https://youtu.be/1uZDbDoDAq4 Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass DLC – Nintendo Switch]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved February 9, 2022.</ref> [[Koopa Paratroopa]]s and [[Shy Guy]]s have been added as spectators on the course. | |||
