Wuhu Loop (Wuhu Island Loop in PAL regions), is the first track of the Flower Cup in Mario Kart 7. This takes place on Wuhu Island from Wii Sports Resort, and so does Maka Wuhu and the battle stage Wuhu Town. It is very long, causing it to be the first in Mario Kart to have sections, not laps, instead having one large lap. This track has not appeared as a retro track in a recent Mario Kart game yet.

Layout[]

The track begins in Wuhu Town. Several Miis cheer for players behind the fences. As the track goes out of the city, the racers will approach the Red Iron Bridge. Leaving the bridge and passing the Cocoba Hotel, heading into lap 2.

Section 2 begins with a tunnel going through the mountain. When the racers exit the tunnel, they are greeted by more curves. Players can choose to stay on the main road, or go through the Mysterious Ruins. The latter has a glider area at the very end, directing the racers back onto the highway. The road starts narrowing as the racers approach another turn in the road. A shortcut can be accessed by a dashboard and two concrete platforms, but this shortcut is very easy to mess up. The road widens again as the racers head into the final section.

The third and final section starts with a right turn, passing by some wind turbines. Another fork in the road can allow racers to choose to stay on the highway or take a longcut past a lighthouse named, "The Candle". Like the first fork, the latter has gliding section. The racers continue on down back into Wuhu Town, and cross the line.

Shortcuts[]

  • After the second ramp, you can access a hidden ramp by turning right after you go past the first ramp. It requires a Mushroom without slowing down.
  • After Island Loop Tunnel #1, keep going until you arrive at the Mysterious Ruins. What you need to do here is turn right to access a tunnel followed by a glider ramp.
  • If you choose not to go to the Mysterious Ruins Tunnel, go past the tunnel and then under Dead-End Point, go to the left side and keep going onto the secret path.
  • You can make a sharp turn right and go across pillars. This one is hard to pull off because you need to get the right angle.
  • On section 3, once you go past the ramp, make a sharp turn right in the area of the lighthouse and you will go through two boosts and a glider ramp. And, if you want to, use the fan.
  • If you chose not to do the lighthouse shortcut, keep going and once you go past the crates, go left and go to a ramp. Slows you down if you don't use a Mushroom.

Glitches[]

  • Next to the second final tree before Section 3, you can go next to the tree, boost using a Mushroom. Nothing funny, right? Well, Lakitu will put you way farther into the track than you are supposed to as Lakitu will put you past the Section 3 Finish Line.
  • This one is the same, but on the lighthouse shortcut, once you go over the two Dash Panels, turn right, and boost using a Mushroom. You do the same thing but this time you boost using a Mushroom AND hop. Lakitu will place you just before the finish line.

Trivia![]

  • This is the first point-to-point course in Mario Kart.
    • This is also the first course to take place on Wuhu Island.
  • The Whale Shark Blimp says "Wii" although that this is Mario Kart 7, and Mario Kart 7 is for the Nintendo 3DS.
    • It is possible that the reason for this is because Wii Sports Resort IS on the Wii.
  • This track re-uses the Wii Sports Resort theme, but it’s played on a Electric Guitar.
  • This is the first "crossover" course.
