This article is under construction. Therefore, please excuse its informal appearance while it is being worked on. We hope to have it completed as soon as possible.
Peach Gardens is the second racing course of the Special Cup in Mario Kart DS. The course is located in the backyards' gardens of Princess Peach's Castle. Obstacles in the course include Chain Chomps and Monty Moles, both capable of attacking the player. The course is often blocked by large hedges which cannot be driven through and patches of grass that slow players down. However, a speed booster such as a Mushroom or a Star can be used to get across the grass for a shortcut. Peach Gardens has also reappeared in Mario Kart Wii as the second course in the Lightning Cup. An element added for this version is a ramp found near to the soil path right next to where the Monty Moles jump up. Also the Chain Chomps have chains and they move more slowly.

The track starts with the starting line in the front of the castle's backdoor. The racers go along a straight piece of road towards a pond with a roundabout circling the grass statue of Mario. The racers swerve to the left to return to the garden and take a semicircular turn to the right and a patch of flowers in it that can be passed through to skip the turn. The road continues uphill to a square terrace with a pair of squared patches of grass and flowers in it. The road turns in a 90 degrees turn to the right; however, any racer can cut the path by going to a narrow portion of flat terrain to the right of the front patch of flowers and go instantly downhill out of the terrace. Racers enter to a maze-like zone, where the main road is pslit up by squared parterres
The garden of Peach's Castle appears in other games like Super Mario 64, Paper Mario, Mario Kart 64, Mario Party 3, Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour, Mario Superstar Baseball, and for a short time in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga.

Trivia
- The Chain Chomp theme (which is similar to that of Double Dash's theme, with a changed melody as well as an extended bass line and bridge) appears in Mission Mode level 5-1, where Peach has to race a stray Chain Chomp on this course.
