Walrus Cove
It has been requested that this article be rewritten and expanded to include more information.
Walrus Cove is an area in the Snowflake Mountain area of Timber Island in the games Diddy Kong Racing and its remake, Diddy Kong Racing DS. Despite its name, no walruses appear in Walrus Cove.
The cove has a massive ice slide which bends upwards. Zippers at the foot of the slide allow the players to traverse it.
In the Nintendo DS version, the water near the end of the track acts as normal water. In the original version, it bounces the player's car until they reach land; the water doesn't affect hovercrafts.
Layout
The tracks starts with the racers immediately going into a cave before going onto an icy loop-the-loop. After this part of the track, the racers go upwards in a spiral up out of the cave, before going over an icy straight with some Zippers that leads back into a cave following a left-hand turn. The racers then exit the cave and spiral down a snowy path, before entering the final section, which is made up of icebergs and the water between them, before getting back to the start line. On a branching path in the iceberg section, if the player goes on the left path they can get a Rainbow Balloon.
