After racers serpentine through the meadow, they encounter the second item set followed by a slight right turn and a simple blue ramp. After the ramp, there is a left turn where racers will encounter the first of several [[Monty Mole]]s. The Monty Moles will burrow around the track, leaving behind dirt trails that slow racers down, before stopping and trying to pop out of the ground to hit racers. After the left turn, racers enter an open area with multiple routes; several small grassy hills lie throughout the track and racers must weave around them, though there is a [[Dash Panel|dash panel]] ramp that allows them to jump over the first hill. The last item set can be found here; there are Item Boxes both floating in midair above the hill, and to the left and right of the hill. Several more Monty Moles are also found around the hills. After this section, there is a slight left turn and racers then reach the finish line. | After racers serpentine through the meadow, they encounter the second item set followed by a slight right turn and a simple blue ramp.

Moo Moo Meadows makes its classic course debut in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as the first course of the [[Shell Cup]]. The course is also available in the [[Battle Mode]] of the Wii U version of ''Mario Kart 8''. Its layout is mostly retained but has several notable changes. The track as a whole is more varied and uneven in elevation. At the turn after the simple ramp, the outside of the turn has been elevated and ends in a [[Glide Ramp|glide ramp]]. The hills at the ending section have also significantly been reduced in size, expanding the main track as a result. The Monty Moles no longer leave behind trails that slow down racers; instead, the trails can be used as ramps for racers to perform [[Jump Boost|tricks]] off of. Lastly, the first set of Item Boxes now appears at the start of the first turn, the last item set is removed altogether, and Double Item Boxes appear at the second item set in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''. | Moo Moo Meadows makes its classic course debut in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as the first course of the [[Shell Cup]].

The course also has received several visual and auditory changes. The time of day has changed to morning, and a rooster can be heard crowing at the start of the course intro. There are now more farms, variations of Moo Moos, and windmills. The once-bobbing trees are now stationary trees. The start/finish line banner is now similar to the banner on [[Thwomp Ruins]] and uses the modern ''Mario Kart'' logo. The music is now orchestrated, using more fiddle in the theme. | The course also has received several visual and auditory changes.

Based on a city map that can be found in [[Super Bell Subway]], Moo Moo Meadows is shown to be located on the outskirts area of the city that contains both [[Toad Harbor]] and {{classic link|Wii|Wario's Gold Mine}}, as well as the same city that {{classic link|N64|Rainbow Road}} hovers over.<ref>[[Media:MK8 dSBS City Map.png|The map of the city where the Super Bell Subway course is found]]</ref> | Based on a city map that can be found in [[Super Bell Subway]], Moo Moo Meadows is shown to be located on the outskirts area of the city that contains both [[Toad Harbor]] and {{classic-link|Wii|Wario's Gold Mine}}, as well as the same city that {{classic-link|N64|Rainbow Road}} hovers over.<ref>[[Media:MK8 dSBS City Map.png|The map of the city where the Super Bell Subway course is found]]</ref> | ||

Moo Moo Meadows appears in ''[[Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games (Wii)|Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games]]'' as the location of the [[Dream Equestrian]] event, though the event uses a track with a completely different layout. Players must travel through the track carrying a wagon full of seven [[Yoshi Egg|Yoshi eggs]] and reach the finish line. The course features [[Kamek]], who tries to throws obstacles in the players' path, and a [[Chain Chomp]] that appears before the conclusion of the event. | Moo Moo Meadows appears in ''[[Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games (Wii)|Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games]]'' as the location of the [[Dream Equestrian]] event, though the event uses a track with a completely different layout.
