GBA Luigi Circuit from Mario Kart Tour
GBA Luigi Circuit in its latest appearance, Mario Kart Tour

Luigi Circuit is a series of circuit courses from the Mario Kart series named after Luigi. This course, in one form or another, appears in the majority of Mario Kart installments, and excluding the course from Mario Kart: Super Circuit, it is among the simplest tracks in its respective games. Even though they are usually among the easiest tracks, they differ in size, features, and obstacles.

The first entry in the Mario Kart series to introduce a Luigi Circuit course was Mario Kart 64, in which circuit courses were referred to as raceways in international releases. Since then, three more iterations of Luigi Circuit have appeared throughout the Mario Kart series.
