| '''Sherbet Land''' is a snow and ice themed racetrack found in ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]''. Both Sherbet Lands differ widely from each other; one has Penguins sliding across the ice throughout the entire track while the other has Shy Guys skating in one part of the track and Freezies in another. Every place that has "Sherbet Land" in its name is usually associated with ice.

| [[Penguin]]s litter the track, causing spin-outs if a racer hits them. A player can cut a corner by hopping over a small crevice in some spots, but risks falling into the ice-cold water below.
| |
| A cave with a lot of penguins marks the halfway point of the track. The course resembles the [[Vanilla Lake 1]] and [[Vanilla Lake 2]] courses from [[Super Mario Kart]].
| |
| | |
| This course returns in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]''. The graphics have improved on this track like all the other Retro courses. The entire course is offroad, so the best vehicle to use is the [[Magikruiser]]. A trick ramp has been placed near the locate of the hidden item boxes and [[Dash Panel]]s have been placed in the cave. It appears as the first course of the [[Banana Cup]].

| This course takes place in a different environment rather than racing in ice and water in ''Mario Kart 64''. It takes place in an ice rink, a snow area and soon, another icy place with [[Freezie]]s, that stay still in the road, but they freeze the driver and the kart by contact. In the ice rink are [[Shy Guy]]s skating around. It is possible to knock them into the water, but only if the player has the time and items (such as a Star, shells, and some Special Items) to do so, which permanently knocks the Shy Guys out of the track.
| |
| | |
| ====Course Layout====
| |
| The course starts out in a snowy road, in between two brown walls with faces on them. After the first twist with some [[Item Box]]es there is a slight right curve into the ice rink area, with blue and red Shy Guys skating around. Any contact with the Shy Guys will spin the player out unless he/she has a projectile item like a [[Shell]], or using a [[Star]], which will knock the Shy Guys apart. On the right of the ice rink is a large opening in the ice, which will lead the player directly into frozen water. Falling into the water, [[Lakitu]] appears to take them back to the ice, whilst unfortunate racers remain within a ice cube before touching ground. A couple of red shy guys skate around before the entrance of the ice tunnel which players enter after crossing the ice pond.

| |
| Inside the tunnel, there is a twisted road, containing some item boxes in it. Racers first take a turn to the right to happen upon an ice column in the middle of the road. Players surround the ice pillar taking the left or the right. The left side has an item box while the right side of the column has two. After the ice pillar is a very slight twist to the left that leads outside.
| |
| | |
| Outside, the player will swerve left and then right in and S-turn. The road is less slippery here since the player races in the snow rather than ice. Just after this turn, the player go in a short straight piece of the road, with some item boxes there until turn to the right to enter another zone covered in ice.
| |
| | |
| In this zone, the Freezies stay still on the road, but making contact with one, will make them to freeze the kart that touched them and move around, either freezing solid any other unaware player nearby or move towards a wall, breaking into pieces. Once frozen, the kart cannot move and the items in possesion will drop on the road. Certain items just bounce off them, though some powerful can budge or destroy them completely, such as using the [[star]].
| |
| | |
| Following the twisting ice road first to the right, left and then right, the starting line is seen right after there.
| |
| | |
| This track counts with one shortcut located in the Freezies' ice road. Just before taking the first turn, a player can get into the pass behind the ice tower and so skipping a part of the road infested of Freezies. Having a [[Mushroom]] is needed as the pass is covered by rough snow that decreases the kart's speed.

| ===''Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games''===
| |
| Sherbet Land from Mario Kart 64 appears in the game for [[Dream Curling]].
| |
| | |
| ==== Trivia ====
| |
| *In Mario Kart Wii, in N64 Sherbet Land, the player can get to the giant Penguin by hopping off the ice and using a [[Bullet Bill]]. However, once the [[Player]] gets there, [[Lakitu]] will immediately get them.
