Fiery Cavern is the third level of the Sapphire Passage in the Game Boy Advance game Wario Land 4. As its name suggests, it is infested with fire pits that spit out torrents of hot magma. Touching either will damage Wario. A unique enemy appears here, Iwao, that throws rolling rocks at Wario. Only a Ground Pound can defeat them. Upon hitting the switch at the mid-way point of the level, the whole area's lava, fire, etc, becomes frozen, and the Iwao become Yeti. Some lava torrents freeze over, allowing Wario to use them as platforms to reach higher places. Wario will re-encounter areas that he has visited before hitting the switch, but all the heat has frozen over, so it seems like a completely different area. This level's CD is called You and Your Shoes, and once collected, it can be played in the Sound Room.

Trivia
- Given Fiery Cavern's placement in the Sapphire Passage and its theme, it seems to be based on Hell from Christian mythology. The way the level freezes over when Wario hits the Frog Switch is a reference to the term 'Hell Freezes Over', aka something very unlikely happens (such as a fiery place immediately being frozen).
