The course starts in the entrance of the castle. As soon as the drivers enter the castle, they will see the miniature of Bowser pointing the right way, along with several [[Gray Bowser Statue]]s that shoot laser on the drivers. After numerous turns, drivers will enter the road with anti-gravity sections. Along the way lies the ramps that the drivers can perform [[Trick]]s, but with the extreme caution, as there lies the sets of [[Firebar]]s and a flail. After these sections lies the U-turn that leads to the forked way where flaming Bowser Golem is. Two roads will eventually merge into one and they will have spiraling section of the road. Lava pillars gush out from the lava pit and will hit the unwary drivers that pass through these hazards. At the end of the road lies the gliding pad that leads outside of the castle. There is another U-turn, with what appears to be a boulder shaped like a [[Brolder]] rolling towards the drivers. After these turns lies the finish line.

Bowser's Castle is the penultimate course of Special Cup in Mario Kart 8. The course takes place in Bowser's Castle and its surroundings, covered with lava pits, fireballs, and so forth.

Overview

In this incarnation of Bowser's Castle, several notable objects are placed inside and outside the castle. One of the notable feature is the giant, flaming golem in a shape of Bowser himself that constantly punches the forked road to create undulations on the track. Several minions of Bowser, such as Hammer Bros. and Dry Bones, are seen patrolling inside the castle, sometimes cheering for the drivers. Like in many other Bowser's Castles, lava pillars sometimes gush out of the lava pits, damaging other drivers that passes the place where these hazards are nearby. The castle seems larger than most of its previous incarnations.

Course layout

The course starts in the entrance of the castle. As soon as the drivers enter the castle, they will see the miniature of Bowser pointing the right way, along with several Gray Bowser Statues that shoot laser on the drivers. After numerous turns, drivers will enter the road with anti-gravity sections. Along the way lies the ramps that the drivers can perform Tricks, but with the extreme caution, as there lies the sets of Firebars and a flail. After these sections lies the U-turn that leads to the forked way where flaming Bowser Golem is. Two roads will eventually merge into one and they will have spiraling section of the road. Lava pillars gush out from the lava pit and will hit the unwary drivers that pass through these hazards. At the end of the road lies the gliding pad that leads outside of the castle. There is another U-turn, with what appears to be a boulder shaped like a Brolder rolling towards the drivers. After these turns lies the finish line.
