Hightail Falls Galaxy
This article is under construction. Therefore, please excuse its informal appearance while it is being worked on. We hope to have it completed as soon as possible.
Template:Galaxybox Hightail Falls Galaxy is a galaxy that appears in Super Mario Galaxy 2 for the Wii. The bulk of the galaxy accommodates the use of the Dash Pepper, which allows Yoshi to scale walls and steep slopes. The background in the galaxy features high waterfalls and rocks. Additionally, the music heard in the galaxy is an orchestrated arrangement of the "Athletic" theme from Super Mario World. The music goes fast when the Dash Pepper is used.

Missions
Hot-Stepping Dash Pepper
When Mario arrives on this planet, he has to get Yoshi out of the Yoshi Egg. Then, guide him to the Dash Pepper so he can cross the slope and use the Launch Star located at the end of it. After using it, he'll get to a slope planet. Mario and Yoshi have to do the same thing here: get the Dash Pepper to cross the slope. The Launch Star is located on a platform to the right.
After the Launch Star blasts off the two heroes, they'll get to a planet with black falling platforms. To get across, Yoshi has to eat a Dash Pepper again. The Launch Star can be found at the end of the level.
After using it, Mario and Yoshi will get to the planet with the Power Star on it. Mario, has to use Dash Yoshi to cross the slopes and the ramps found in this planet, and then use Yoshi's tongue to reach the daisies found in bubbles. After using the Dash Pepper again, Yoshi has to make his way to the Power Star by walking on walls.
Hightail Falls Speed Run
This mission is the same as the first one, only there is a time limit of three minutes. Mario and Yoshi have to get the Power Star within three minutes. It's also more difficult as meteors fall and the platforms are partially destroyed.
Silver Stars in Hightail Falls
To get the Power Star, Mario has to do the same thing he did in the first one. Except, he has to feed the Hungry Luma found in the Vertical Wall Planet 30 Coins. It'll then transform into a grassy planet, leaving a Launch Star behind. Mario has to take the Launch Star to get to the new planet. Here, he has to get all the Silver Stars from the five enemies. If he manages to collect all of them, they'll turn into a Power Star.
Green Star 1
The first Green Star is located on the Giant Ramp Planet right at the top near Penguru. In order for the player to reach the top, they must guide Mario and Yoshi to the first Dash Pepper and to stay to the far left. This path is challenging since many purple blocks can make Yoshi fall back to the ground. After passing the blocks they must run Yoshi over the second Dash Pepper to continue his way up to the top. If done correctly, the player should have reached the top, and now all they have to do is make Mario jump from under the star to obtain it.
Green Star 2
Green Star 2 is located in the air to the right of the Comet Medal. To reach it, Mario or Luigi and Yoshi must get on top of the purple block by carefully jumping near it and Flutter Jumping to it. Then they must jump to the star.
Green Star 3
Green Star 3 is located to the right of the flower grapples. Yoshi can use the flower grapples and Flutter Jump to reach the star.
