'''DK Pass''' is the first course of the [[Star Cup]] in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. It reappears as a [[retro course]] in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'', as the second course of the [[Leaf Cup]], and in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', beginning with the [[Winter Tour (2019)|2019 Winter Tour]] and being the first course that has served as the signature course in two tours (the 2019 Winter Tour and the [[Jungle Tour]]). ''Mario Kart Tour'' also includes the course as '''DK Pass R''' (reversed), '''DK Pass T''' (with ramps), and '''DK Pass R/T''' (reversed with ramps); the former two debuted alongside the regular variant in the 2019 Winter Tour, while the latter debuted in the [[Ice Tour]].
'''DK Pass''' is the first course of the [[Star Cup]] in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. It reappears in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' as the second course of the [[Leaf Cup]], and in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' starting with the [[Winter Tour (2019)|2019 Winter Tour]]. Despite this course being named after [[Donkey Kong]], no elements themed after him aside from the [[#Sponsors|sponsors]] are present.


DK Pass is one of [[Donkey Kong]]'s home courses in the [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'' series]], but the only elements themed after him are the sponsors, all appearing in the form of trackside banners.
==''Mario Kart DS''==
===Course layout===
[[File:MKDSDKPass.png|thumb|left|150px|Donkey Kong races down the mountainside.]]
The stage takes the player over a mountain and back down. Numerous snowballs roll around, and racers lose their item and spin backward if they crash into one. [[Snowman|Snowmen]] also appear in the course, similar to the ones in [[N64 Frappe Snowland|Frappe Snowland]] in ''[[Mario Kart 64]]''. Collision with them has an identical effect as crashing into a snowball.


==Layout==
An isolated [[Item Box]] appears up on a snowy cliff at the peak of the hill, after the second set of normal item boxes. To avoid slowing down, the player will need a [[Dash Mushroom|Mushroom]] or two to get through the snow to the item box, but in it contains one of these items: [[Super Star|Star]], Mushroom, [[Triple Mushrooms]], or a [[Red Shell]]. Any of them can be received in any position, including in Wi-Fi play, but it will usually yield Triple Mushrooms or a Star.

===''Mario Kart 7''===
DK Pass is the only unlockable course that is shown in ''Mario Kart DS''{{'}}s instruction booklet.
All the trees in the off-road sections of DK Pass were removed, and some wooden [[ramp]]s have been placed in the off-road area of this track, allowing players to perform a [[trick]] and gain a boost. The [[Dash Panel]] in the large jump is replaced with a [[Glide Ramp]]. Landing outside the barriers will result in an "out-of-bounds". The secret item box on the hill still holds a Mushroom, Triple Mushroom, or a Star, but will more often yield only a Mushroom than before, and no longer yields a Red Shell. Much like [[Wii DK Summit|DK Summit]] from ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', the race starts out foggy in the first two laps, but the fog clears up on the final lap. It is also now snowing throughout the race, which did not happen in the original.  
{{br|left}}


An shortcut can be performed by leaning off the log ramp on the right before the Glide Ramp, using a [[Dash Mushroom|Mushroom]] and tricking to gain air time, and bypassing the cliff to the right to land behind the finish line. The player now must simply cross back over the finish line in the right direction to make the lap count.<ref>{{cite|author=new MOMIジ|url=youtu.be/bTFk0nvRDnM|date=April 24, 2020|title=<nowiki>[MK7 WR Replay]</nowiki> DS DK Pass (Glitch) 1:54.946|publisher=YouTube|language=en|accessdate=January 30, 2021}}</ref>
===Missions===
There are two [[Mario Kart DS#Missions|missions]] that take place on DK Pass:
*'''Mission 4-1''': The player controls [[Wario]], who must beat [[Donkey Kong]] in a single-lap race. Each [[Item Box]] contains a Star, Mushroom, or Triple Mushrooms. During this mission, there are extra snowmen.
*'''Mission 5-7''': The player controls [[Toad]], who must pass through 8 gates within 45 seconds. During this mission, there are extra oncoming snowballs.
Both missions involve going through the course in the opposite direction.


===''Mario Kart Tour''===
===Staff ghost===
A few modifications were made to DK Pass. The tunnel at the start of the course is redesigned, being of a rounded shape. Near the end of the track, the small village was redesigned and made more visible. Similar to ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', the ''Mario Kart'' logo uses a modern design instead of the classic design. Due to a lack of Stars and the Triple Mushrooms being a special item, the secret Item Box only gives normal items. From its debut up until part two of the [[Holiday Tour (2019)|2019 Holiday Tour]], a [[festive tree]] is found by the small village.
The staff ghost on this course is 2:14:607 using Donkey Kong in the Wildlife.{{br|left}}


In the R/T variant, racers drive across a pair of [[Mushroom Trampoline|mushroom trampolines]].
==''Mario Kart 7''==
DK Pass makes its classic course debut as the second course of the [[Leaf Cup]] in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]''. All the trees in the off-road sections have been removed and some wooden ramps have been placed in the off-road area of this track, allowing players to perform a [[trick]] and gain a boost. The [[Dash Panel]] in the large jump is replaced with a [[Glide Ramp]]. Landing outside the barriers will result in an "out-of-bounds". The secret item box on the hill still holds a Mushroom, Triple Mushroom, or a Star, but will more often yield only a Mushroom than before, and no longer yields a Red Shell. Much like [[Wii DK Summit|DK Summit]] from ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', the race starts out foggy in the first two laps, but the fog clears up on the final lap. It is also now snowing throughout the race, which did not happen in the original.  


==Profiles and statistics==
An extremely difficult shortcut can be performed by leaning off the log ramp on the right before the Glide Ramp, using a [[Dash Mushroom|Mushroom]] and tricking to gain air time, and bypassing the cliff to the right to land behind the finish line. The player now must simply cross back over the finish line in the right direction to make the lap count.<ref>new MOMIジ (April 24, 2020).
