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 male 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 shotting barrel aimed at a mountain and a zig-zagging, crevice-filled path to the goal line, and like DK Pass is it covered in snow and has various small snowpiles, and that it has a rainbow-coloured pile that makes the players jump.
