The level takes place in a cavern full of [[Jewel-Block]]s, [[Konk]]s, and [[Spiny|Spinies]] walking on the ceiling. The player starts near a Konk in a recess in the ceiling, with a wide Jewel-Block below and a [[? Block]] above it containing a [[Drill Mushroom]]. Inmediately after, they will encounter a Spiny, more Jewel-Blocks (including one with a [[Talking Flower]] trapped inside) and another Konk. After a small tunnel accessible only in Drill form leading into an alcove with a few [[coin]]s, there will be a segment with Spinies and Jewel-Blocks above small [[pit]]s, and then another Drill-exclusive tunnel, leading to a [[Warp Pipe]]. Through it is a side room featuring coins, [[flower coin]]s, a Talking Flower and a [[1-Up Mushroom]]. If the player doesn't take the Warp Pipe, they will have to avoid three Konks and several pits. Both paths rejoin right before the [[Checkpoint Flag]].<ref name=TreehouseFootage/><ref name=GamexplainFootage>Eurogamer (September 3, 2023).

Past the checkpoint, cyan, upwards-facing Konks are introduced, along with [[Beacon (Super Mario Bros. Wonder)|beacon]]s in the ceiling. Past another Konk, a [[Wonder Flower]] can be found inside a Jewel-Block. Touching it will trigger the course's [[Wonder Effect]], which will create blue blocks that wall the player into a vertical shaft and summon a screen-sized Konk above. The Konk will slam down periodically, breaking Jewel-Blocks in its way, but will stagger after breaking stone blocks. The Wonder Seed is found at the bottom of the shaft, encased in a Jewel-Block. A Warp Pipe will take the player to the next part of the level, featuring a horizontal hallway with both downwards- and upwards-facing Konks on either side of a bridge of Jewel-Blocks. At the end is another Warp Pipe, leading to the outside of the cavern, with one last Spiny, a staircase of Jewel-Blocks and the [[Goal Pole]], where the second Wonder Seed is awarded.<ref name=TreehouseFootage/>
