Donut Plains 3 is the first course in the Special Cup in Super Mario Kart. It features a giant lake, a peninsula jutting far into the water, and two broken bridges without side-rails. The racers must hop or feather over the crack in the second bridge to avoid falling into the lake. Monty Moles live on this stage as well; both on land, and in water.
The course reappears in Mario Kart: Super Circuit along with the other Super Mario Kart racetracks. The track was improved with an added bump on the second bridge to jump over the crack, making the track easier to pass.
Trivia
- If the player uses a Mushroom before the jump on the 2nd bridge and points left, he or she can pass half the course and land near the finishing line.
