- “Nothin' like seeing a frozen beach to really kill the mood, bro!”
- —Funky Kong, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze
Donkey Kong Island is the sixth and last main island the Kongs have to venture through in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze and its Nintendo Switch port of the same name. The island was turned into a snowscape by Snowmads coming from the North Sea. The levels of this world, with the exception of the optional stages, are each orderly based on a world from Donkey Kong Country Returns.
The map of Donkey Kong Island is navigated using Barrel Cannons. Since the paths are not physically marked on the map of the island, there are arrows that indicate where the player can go, much like on the world maps of Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest.
Levels
| Level number | Level name | Preview | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| World 6-1 | Homecoming Hijinxs | 
|
A level set in the island's Jungle, featuring a collapsible walls and platforms. |
| World 6-2 | Seashore War | 
|
A level themed around the Beach. The sea below is freezing and cannot be swum in. Shipwreck parts can be pulled out of the water using fixed handles, revealing secrets or elevating the Kongs to higher platforms. |
| World 6-3 | Aqueduct Assault | 
|
A level taking place in the island's Ruins, along massive, frozen aqueducts. Most times, stepping on one causes it to either collapse altogether or slant and fall off its supports. |
| World 6-4 | Blurry Flurry | 
|
The fourth Rocket Barrel stage in the game going through the island's Cave world (just like some levels of the world from its predecessor). The principal hazards are snowballs shot by small, orange cannons fixed on various surfaces. Passages are coated in snow, which sometimes drops down from the ceiling as the Kongs navigate them. |
| World 6-5 | Forest Folly | 
|
A level taking place in the island's Forest, devoted to the use of spring platforms and vines to traverse wide pits. Big, sharp snowflakes are prevalent obstacles in the level. |
| World 6-6 | Cliffside Slide | 
|
A level set in the Cliff area, during a snow avalanche that obscures view. The Kongs must rely on a multitude of objects driven downward by the avalanche in order to reach the end of the level. |
| World 6-7 | Frozen Frenzy | 
|
A level reminiscent of the Factory world. Electroids, returning from the previous adventure, briefly electrify objects that can be interacted with. |
| World 6-8 | Meltdown Mayhem | 
|
A stage contained within the Volcano and featuring Rambi the Rhino for the last time in the game. The Kongs must ride him through series of sinking ice blocks and rows of enemies. |
| World 6-A | Dynamite Dash | 
|
A stage dedicated to dynamite-related mechanisms. The Kongs are often forced to step on pressured platforms that will cause explosions somewhere near, prompting them to run to a safer place. |
| World 6-B | Icicle Arsenal | 
|
A level with falling icicles. |
| World 6-K | Slippy Spikes | 
|
The sixth and last Hidden Kong Temple stage from the game. It features many structures moving along tracks, bobbing towards spikes on the ceiling and floor. |
| World 6-Boss | Volcano Dome | 
|
The final boss stage, where Lord Fredrik is battled. |

Trivia
- This is the first occasion since the original Donkey Kong Country when the Kongs can explore snowy places on Donkey Kong Island, as the aforementioned game featured Gorilla Glacier, the summit of the island. It was subsequently replaced in Donkey Kong Country Returns with the Volcano.
- The fact that the waters of Donkey Kong Island are very cold and dangerous in Tropical Freeze, and that Donkey Kong Country Returns lacked the ability to swim, make the original Donkey Kong Country the only game from its series where the player can explore the waters of Donkey Kong Island.
