Choco Mountain is the third track of the Flower Cup in Mario Kart 64, the second track of the Leaf Cup in Mario Kart DS, and the third track of the Golden Dash Cup in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. It also returns to Mario Kart Tour as the spotlight track of the Exploration Tour.
The Staff Ghost setup in Mario Kart DS is Wario in the Dragonfly.
Layout[]
Mario Kart 64[]
It is brown, and as the name suggests, it is probably chocolate. It features a chocolate tunnel shaped like a pyramid, and at one point, big chocolate boulders crash down onto the track. If a player is hit by these boulders, it will knock them off the track or flatten them. A lake is shown near the boulders as well. Shortly before the finish line, there's a point where the players can fall to a lower section of the track, losing about 20 seconds. In 50cc as well as Time Trials, there are railings along the cliff which prevent you from falling. Meanwhile, in 100cc and 150cc, there is no railing, which makes it possible to fall or knock someone down.
Mario Kart DS[]
This track returns in Mario Kart DS as the second course of the Leaf Cup. The track is still pretty much the same from the N64 version, except, if a player/computer gets hit by a boulder here, he/she will be flattened, thus slowing them down. In Mission 4-6, Donkey Kong has to destroy 10 Item Boxes while avoiding the Fake Item Boxes.
Mario Kart Tour[]
This track returns in Mario Kart Tour as the spotlight track of the Exploration Tour. A lot has changed from its past versions. One of the major walls at the beginning was completely removed, and mountains can be seen from afar. The mini tunnel is now a full cave with diamonds and Swoopers added in. There is now a glider section after it, just before getting to the U turn with the falling rocks. The banisters have also been re-added.
Unlike most tracks, Choco Mountain doesn't roughly remain the same shape as it was before, as one can note from the map.
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe[]
This track returns in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe as the third race of the Golden Dash Cup. Its layout is directly lifted from the version in Tour, but with higher resolution textures. Additionally, the boulders now resemble Brolders.
Hazards[]
- Falling Boulders
- Swoopers (since Mario Kart Tour)

Trivia![]
- Choco Mountain was the only Mario Kart 64 track in the Mario Kart DS kiosk demo that doesn't have a minimap programmed.
- Choco Mountain, as it was in Mario Kart 64, is infamous for its broken nature and the numerous amount of (unintended) shortcuts. One of these is the Weathertenko, where the player Mushroom boosts into the left wall just after the starting line to hit the top of the wall then tumble back down on the other side of the starting line, still being given credit for the lap. It was named eponymously after the player Weathertenko, who first discovered and publicized this trick.
- This is the longest retro track in Mario Kart DS.
- The music for this track is shared with the battle tracks Block Fort and Double Deck.
