Template:Justreleased Template:Racecourse
Wild Woods is the third race course of the Crossing Cup in Mario Kart 8. The course can be obtained by purchasing the Animal Crossing × Mario Kart 8 downloadable content along with the other three race courses found in this cup. The course is located in an forested area inhabited by Toads and Shy Guys, where the track runs around a giant tree, its branches, down a stream passage and through a pond in a clearing of the forest.
Layout
The race starts in a groove, serving as track on the trunk of the tree, therefore racers start the course in anti-gravity mode. The track makes an U-turn to the right while racers meet the first set of Item Boxes and coins and follow a boardwalk. The track then splits in two, while the boardwalk ends with two ramps for tricks on each side. Racers can choose which branch take: The left has some coins scattered in the road, while the right there are more ramps for tricks but no coins to collect. After that, the two sections join and finish with another ramp to jump, where the antigravity mode turns off and racers once again land on a boardwalk that runs through a small village dwelling in the top of tree, inhabited by several Shy Guys.
The track bends gently to the right with a second set of item boxes here and some coins. Racers now take the blue ramp to glide over a large void and reach a circular platform at the end with a picture of Shy Guy's mask on it. The boardwalk continues once racers have landed there. Taking a slight bend to the left, racers drop from the boardwalk to a passage with a stream of water running down, giving them a slight boost of speed. Racers will find here more ramps to jump and coins moving along the stream, and the last set of item boxes, while the passage turns to the right.Racers exit the passage taking the last ramp and fall to a shallow pond in the lowest level of the forest. The pond has enormous leaves floating with Boost Pads on them, so that players can run over and perform their tricks. The last set of coins is found there over the pads.
After the pond, the racer will find a last ramp to jump over another gap and land directly another boardwalk over an anti-gravity pad. The tracks makes a slight detour to the left, which is also the last bend that leads the player back to the trunk's groove and starting line, completing in that way a lap.
Shortcuts
- Take the left route where the track splits near the beginning to take either of these shortcuts:
- Just before the finish line and located in the detour, there is a single jump ramp that can be taken. It is required to use a Mushroom or a Star to take this way due to the grass before it.

Trivia
- This is the only track to start in anti-gravity, but to not entirely be in anti-gravity.
- Wild Woods is the first track in the Mario Kart series to have music in 5/4 time; that is, five beats to a measure and the quarter note gets the count.
