'''Rising Tides of Lava''', or '''Peach's Castle-3''', is the third course of [[Peach's Castle (world)|Peach's Castle]] in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''. It takes place in an underground volcano with rising lava.

The player starts next to a ledge before a Big Buzzy Beetle, which is followed by a [[? Block]] containing a [[Super Mushroom]]/[[Fire Flower]], then by a [[Screwtop Shroom]] where the player has to turn the screw to get the platform to rise. After a group of Big Buzzy Beetles, the player will come to a group of [[Brick Block]]s with a [[Koopa Troopa]] walking above them; [[Ground Pound]]ing the column of Brick Blocks and kicking the Koopa into the pit will cause it to bounce between two [[Coin Block]]s. By lowering the next mushroom platform, the player can reach a [[Roulette Block]] that can be hit with a nearby Koopa. In the second-from-the-left in the row of Brick Blocks afterward is a [[P Switch]], which will cause two trails of [[Blue Coin]]s to appear: One through small platforms and one through a group of [[Spike Top]]s, both of which merging back to a bridge of [[Coin]]s turned into Brick Blocks if the P Switch is still active. By taking the top of the split path afterward, the player will reach the [[Checkpoint Flag]].

After the flag is a ? Block with a powerup that can be reached by using a Big Buzzy Beetle as a platform. Next are two purple mushroom platforms, the second of which rises when the first lowers, followed by a small crevice with Coins and a Koopa Troopa above. Next is an area with Big Buzzy Beetles, followed by two purple mushroom platforms with the same set-up as the previous pair, though the second one is longer and has two ? Blocks above it. In the ? Block between rock platforms is a Super Mushroom/Fire Flower. Next is a group of three purple mushroom platforms, with the first and third lowering and the second rising. To enter the [[Warp Pipe]], the player needs to use the Big Buzzy Beetle as a platform, which will take the player to the area with the [[Goal Pole]].

|On the large Screwtop Shroom without a screw, Mario must hit between the two [[? Block]]s to make a [[Beanstalk]] appear. After scaling it, he arrives in an area with a [[Flame Chomp]] and the third Star Coin.
