It takes place in a softly snowing region of hills. Its obstacles include many [[Snowman|snowmen]] scattered around the edges of the course. There is also a giant snow statue of [[Mario]] and one of [[Yoshi]]. The course shares its music with [[N64 Sherbet Land|Sherbet Land]]; both are uniquely given blue-tinted minimaps to distinguish from the white scenery. | ||

Racers then take a slight right turn followed by a U-turn to the left; next to the slight right turn is a large Yoshi statue. Afterwards there is a right turn followed by a left turn and a brief straight. Along the straight is a jump over a river followed by another item set. There is then a left turn into a wide area with many snowmen and a large Mario statue. The track narrows after and racers take a left turn followed by a right turn and another left turn. The snow on both sides of the track then becomes elevated by tall cliffs as the track remains flat, cutting through the cliffs at a result; if racers try to drive up the cliffs, [[Lakitu]] brings them back to the track. Here there is one last item set followed by a brief straight, another left U-turn, and a right turn. Racers then use a short wooden bridge to cross the river again and reach the finish line soon after. | ||
While most of the course's snowmen obstacles appear near the Mario statue, some can be found in other areas on or next to the track. | While most of the course's snowmen obstacles appear near the Mario statue, some can be found in other areas on or next to the track. | ||

The player, as soon as they start the race, must turn back and go to the bridge. There, the player must turn facing the goal. The player must head to the snowy area from the bridge without touching the path that leads to the goal and move until Lakitu picks them up. If done well, Lakitu will position the player on the bridge and, when going to the finish line, it will count as one lap.<ref> | The player, as soon as they start the race, must turn back and go to the bridge.

Frappe Snowland reappears in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', starting with the [[Ice Tour]]. It is based on the ''Mario Kart DS'' course layout. The Mario and Yoshi snowmen now look more lifelike and a [[Glide Ramp|glide ramp]] shortcut was added behind the glaciers, a wooden bridge is added after the jump before the snowman section, and the starting banner has been changed to a wooden sign with a blue, three-dimensional ''Mario Kart'' logo. Another shortcut has also been added after the Yoshi snowmen, which features several log ramps. | Frappe Snowland reappears in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', starting with the [[Ice Tour]].
