Layout

The level begins near a group of palm trees with two ? Blocks above them. The first one contains either a Super Mushroom or an Ice Flower, depending on the player's form. A group of rolling hills is found, and two Piranha Plants are on them. A Lakitu that tosses Piranha Pods that spawn Piranha Plants when grounded also appears. Two Note Blocks appear, along with a Koopa Troopa. Another Koopa Troopa is found on a Brick Block structure, which is followed by a group of Note Blocks, along with a Piranha Plant in front of a hidden area containing coins. Another group of three Note Blocks is found, with the third one containing a Super Star. More rolling hills and Piranha Plants are found, along with a structure made of Brick Blocks and ? Blocks. The Checkpoint Flag is found in a group of palm trees. More rolling hills and Piranha Plants are found, along with Note Blocks used to reach a Red Ring. A Big Piranha Plant is found at the end of the hills. More rolling hills are found, and a POW Block on a platform can be used to cause a group of coins to fall. After a group of Piranha Plants, a Koopa Troopa is found on a platform. A hidden Roulette Block can also be found. After a group of Piranha Plants, Big Piranha Plants, and rolling hills, the Goal Pole is found.
