'''Chimp Caverns''' is the sixth and final world in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', located in the eye area of [[Donkey Kong Island]]. As its name suggests, Chimp Caverns is set in a large cavern, and it occurs before the boss fight against [[King K. Rool]] on [[Gang-Plank Galleon]]. It has five [[level]]s, and an additional sixth level, [[Necky Nutmare]], in the [[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Color)|Game Boy Color version]]. [[Master Necky Snr.]] is the boss of Chimp Caverns, and is fought at the bottom-right corner of the area. Chimp Caverns appears to be another industrial [[Kremling]] mining center like the previous world, [[Kremkroc Industries, Inc.]], considering the presence of fuel-run platforms in [[Tanked Up Trouble]] and metal platforms in [[Platform Perils]]. Chimp Caverns also features numerous mines, including one filled with mist. A body of water appears at the bottom of the world map, dividing the location in two. The Kongs can cross the water by using a bridge. A ladder is also shown at the left and right sides of the world map each.

Chimp Caverns is the sixth and final world in Donkey Kong Country, located in the eye area of Donkey Kong Island. As its name suggests, Chimp Caverns is set in a large cavern, and it occurs before the boss fight against King K. Rool on Gang-Plank Galleon. It has five levels, and an additional sixth level, Necky Nutmare, in the Game Boy Color version. Master Necky Snr. is the boss of Chimp Caverns, and is fought at the bottom-right corner of the area. Chimp Caverns appears to be another industrial Kremling mining center like the previous world, Kremkroc Industries, Inc., considering the presence of fuel-run platforms in Tanked Up Trouble and metal platforms in Platform Perils. Chimp Caverns also features numerous mines, including one filled with mist. A body of water appears at the bottom of the world map, dividing the location in two. The Kongs can cross the water by using a bridge. A ladder is also shown at the left and right sides of the world map each.

Like the other worlds, Chimp Caverns's world map was changed for the Game Boy Advance version. Here, it has a more volcanic appearance, as shown from the cracked rocks below. There are also some Mine Carts on a track adjacent to Funky's Fishing. The large pond from the previous two versions was also removed, along with the ladder on the east side of the map. Cranky's Hut is also located on top of a rocky structure, followed by two smaller ones.

The Cave world from Donkey Kong Country Returns is thematically similar and has been suggested to be the same location.[1]
