The '''Bowser Monument'''<ref>{{cite|author=Musa, Alexander|title=''Mario Kart 8'' PRIMA Official Game Guide|page=130|quote='''Bowser Monument:''' This massive centerpiece is alive!

It is a giant [[Bowser Statue]] and the centerpiece of [[Bowser's Castle (Wii U)|Bowser's Castle]]. As the racers drive past it, the Bowser Monument punches the track, sending ripples through it that can be used for [[Jump Boost|trick]]s. The track splits into two, with the Bowser Monument in the middle of both paths, and it alternatively punches a [[Dash Panel]] on each side of the track.

The Bowser Monument greatly resembles the other large Bowser Statues from ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'' as well as [[Bowser Statue|Mecha Bowser]] from ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', except it is intermixed with [[lava]] and punches instead of shooting fire.
