'''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]].

'''Chimp Caverns''' is the sixth and final world in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]''. It is a large cavern area located in the eye area of [[Donkey Kong Island]], occurring just before the final battle at [[Gang-Plank Galleon]]. Chimp Caverns features several mining areas, including one filled with mist, but does not have industrialization to the extent of the [[Kremkroc Industries, Inc.|previous world]]. There is a pond at the bottom, though no levels feature an underwater environment because of a bridge above it. Chimp Caverns looks more volcanic in the [[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Advance)|second remake]], indicated by the cracked rocks and no pond; furthermore, it has [[Mine Cart]]s on a track adjacent to [[Funky's Flights|Funky's Fishing]], and [[Cranky's Cabin|Cranky's Hut]] is located on a rocky structure.


There are five [[level]]s in Chimp Caverns, and an additional sixth level, [[Necky Nutmare]], in the [[Game Boy Color]] port. [[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]] port. Here, it has a more volcanic appearance, as shown from the cracked rocks below. There are also some [[Mine Cart]]s on a track adjacent to [[Funky's Flights|Funky's Fishing]]. Despite the implementation of these map features, none of them appear within the levels. The large pond from the previous two versions was also removed, along with the ladder on the east side of the map. [[Cranky's Cabin|Cranky's Hut]] is also located on top of a rocky structure, followed by two smaller ones.

|The debut level is similar to [[Trick Track Trek]] in that the [[Kong]]s travel on a moving platform, but it is drastically different.

<< List of worlds >>

Chimp Caverns is the sixth and final world in Donkey Kong Country. It is a large cavern area located in the eye area of Donkey Kong Island, occurring just before the final battle at Gang-Plank Galleon. Chimp Caverns features several mining areas, including one filled with mist, but does not have industrialization to the extent of the previous world. There is a pond at the bottom, though no levels feature an underwater environment because of a bridge above it. Chimp Caverns looks more volcanic in the second remake, indicated by the cracked rocks and no pond; furthermore, it has Mine Carts on a track adjacent to Funky's Fishing, and Cranky's Hut is located on a rocky structure.

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