Bluey Challenge,[1] also known as Bluey the Walrus by the game's website,[2] is the boss course of Snowflake Mountain in Diddy Kong Racing and its Nintendo DS remake, as well as the second one in both games overall.

Layout
The course is a snow-covered and mostly downhill area with two tunnels (with the first decorated with Bluey's head and the second with a cross of candy canes) and features trees as obstacles. Bluey is raced twice, first after clearing all of Snowflake Mountain's tracks, and again after completing all of their Silver Coin challenges, or Balloon Touch Challenges in the remake. The second time, Bluey is faster and giant snowballs from Snowball Valley will roll onto the track in the icy section shortly before the second tunnel. In the remake, snowmen were added to the track, and the sky changes from day to night. The snowballs roll downward instead of sideways, and two snowballs were added at the beginning of the home stretch. The snowballs are also no longer absent in the first race. After completing both normal races, the player can take the Boss Touch Challenge.
