'''Valley of Bowser 3''' is the fourth default stage of the [[Valley of Bowser]] from ''[[Super Mario World]]''. The player can gain access to this [[level]] by completing [[Valley Ghost House]]. This level can easily be completed with the [[Cape Feather]] and some [[jump]]s, as most of the enemies here can simply be [[stomp]]ed over so [[Mario]] (or [[Luigi]]) can progress without much use of the [[platform]]s. This level contains collapsing platforms called [[Count-Lift]]s on which Mario must jump. They last for one second or four seconds and appear only in this level. This level is the only normal level in this [[world]] that uses the athletic theme as opposed to the standard underground theme, despite the fact that it takes place underground. The tileset, however, is of the athletic theme.

[[File:Valleyofbowser-3.png|200px|thumb|left|Map of the level]]
Mario has a total of 300 seconds on the [[Time Limit|timer]] to complete this level, and it takes place in a cavern, with several tall platforms by a long [[pit|abyss]]. The stage focuses on the use of several Count-Lifts, so Mario must jump from one to another to avoid falling in the pit.

Mario begins the level in a long cyan platform, with three jumping [[Koopa Paratroopa]]s near the edge of it. After some small platforms with a [[? Block|Prize Block]] on it and a jumping Koopa Paratroopa, Mario finds the first Count-Lifts of the stage, all of them lasting only one second. Mario eventually finds the first [[Dragon Coin]] of the level, near a Koopa Paratroopa. If Mario has a cape, he can easily defeat the Koopa Paratroopas and use them as stepping stones to reach a nearby tall platform, where two Dragon Coins can be found. Right after the third Dragon Coin, Mario finds two yellow pipes blocking the way, with only a straight passage between them, where a [[Koopa Troopa]] hinders Mario. Using some Count-Lifts, Mario eventually reaches solid ground, where he can find the [[Midway Gate]] of the level if he uses a nearby [[Trampoline|Jumping Board]].

Ahead of the Midway Gate are some jumping Koopa Paratroopas and more Count-Lifts. A Dragon Coin can be found near a Koopa Paratroopa, below a four-second Count-Lift. Mario must dodge [[Bomber Bill|Banzai Bill]]s being fired in his direction, while jumping and using the Count-Lifts. The last Dragon Coin of the level can be found near a Banzai Bill. Mario can collect a [[1-Up Mushroom]] if he uses a Count-Lift to reach a couple of blocks in the air. After this, Mario finds the [[Giant Gate]], ending the level.

==Early ideas==
[[File:SMWBetaRedPalace.png|256px|thumb|The unused Red Switch Palace in the Valley of Bowser, which would be accessible from a secret exit of this level in early development]]
An [[List of Super Mario World pre-release and unused content|unused]] secret exit would have led to a similarly unused [[List of Super Mario World pre-release and unused content#Red Switch Palace|Red Switch Palace]]. This level, though, was scrapped and cannot be normally accessed since Valley of Bowser 3 does not have a secret exit, and entering via hacking leads Mario to an endless [[bonus game (Super Mario World)|bonus game]].
