Treasure Caves

Template:DKRBox Treasure Caves is a course in the Sherbet Island area of Timber Island. It is featured in Diddy Kong Racing and its Nintendo DS remake, Diddy Kong Racing DS. The course can be driven in on all three vehicles: The car, the hovercraft, and the plane. Being one of the later tracks encountered, it require sixteen Gold Balloons to enter, and a total of twenty-two balloons to enter a second time for the Silver Coin Challenge. In the game's DS remake, Treasure Caves features no major differences in appearance, however, different music is played during the races.

The track starts out on a wide bridge that curves around a waterfall, seen to the left of the road. A Zipper is placed on the right side of the road, and to the left of the large bridge are a few rock formations sticking out of the water. One of these rocks has a Power-Up Token on it, although it can only be obtained by plane. Another Power-Up Token is located in the air near the end of the bridge. A small tunnel is at the end of the bridge area of the track, and in it are three Item Balloons, two of which are red, and one that is blue. On the side of the wall near the tunnel's entrance is a separate tunnel leading to the next part of the course. It can only be reached by plane. On the other side of the tunnels, the road stretches under a large, bent rock connected to the wall.

An area of water is to the right of this, and a few palm trees surround the edge of it. There is a Zipper past the giant rock tunnel, and it leads between a few red and green Item Balloons into a wide cave. A long passage stretches into this dark cave, which is filled with some sunken ships. A strange, green goo surrounds the dirt road in here, and a few Item Balloons float in the air for pilots. The green goo can be driven on in a hovercraft in order to reach a Power-Up Token nearby a ship. The cave soon narrows down into a tunnel consisting of a Zipper and a lone Power-Up Token, along with some bananas around the bend. Outside of this tunnel is the end of the bridge found at the beginning of the race. The path on the bridge is straight and leads directly to the finish line.
