DK Summit (known as DK's Snowboard Cross in the PAL regions) is the third racecourse of the Flower Cup from Mario Kart Wii. The track takes place in a snowy mountain. Players start in a part of the base of the mountain, being directly shot to the summit by a Barrel Cannon after the first curve. Once arrived in the summit, players go downhill, entering in a half-tunnel pass, where they can perform tricks and get Item Boxes in the air. Certain obstacles appear in the course, such as abysses located in the half-tunnel, and Shy Guys, who practice snowboarding before the finish line. The half-tunnel pass ends immediately in front of the finish line. The mountain's background features wooden buildings as well as two railways, where some Shy Guys sit. A large wooden statue of Mario snowboarding appears in the background of the course. When playing with Miis, the head of the Mario statue is replaced by a Mii head.
The stage is heavily based on DK Mountain from Mario Kart: Double Dash!! and DK Pass from Mario Kart DS. Like DK Mountain, it has a Barrel Cannon aimed at a mountain and a zigzagging, crevice-filled path to the goal line, and like DK Pass is it covered in snow and has various small snowpiles that slow the player down if they run into them, as well as numerous Boost Pad ramps. K.K. Slider from Animal Crossing can be heard in the beginning of this course's song, saying "1-2-3-4!"
