How to Clear this Course

Before battling the Snow King you first have to complete the First 9 Holes of Bowser Highlands. Unlike the regular course played in other game modes, many of the holes in Bowser Highlands will be snowed over.

Wario and Waluigi will also join you during the first 8 holes of the course. To complete the course, at least one member of your party needs to get a Par or better in each hole. There is also a time limit of one minute for each stroke.

It is best not to disrupt the progress of your companions through the course as they can be used as a backup, in case you are unable to make a Par. They also help take out some of the obstacles of the course. Whether or not your companions get a Par seems to be random regardless of the hole.

Getting Past the First 3 Holes

The first three holes of the course will mostly be covered in snow, and failing the course during this portion will force you to restart from Hole 1. Most holes in this part of the course are narrow and straight, so we advise using a long-distance club.

During the first three holes, it is advised to move swiftly through the course to avoid the snowballs launch by the Mr. Blizzards, but also careful not to run into the Bob-ombs on the ground. It is not recommended to try launching any Bob-ombs as it will only subtract from your time.

In Hole 3, you can bypass much of the course by shooting your ball over the rough. Running through these areas also allows you to avoid many of the obstacles.

Getting Past Holes 4 to 6

The next three holes of the course are mostly volcanic with large lava pools surrounding the fairway. Failing this part of the course will not lose all your progress in the entire course, but will return you to Hole 4.

For this course, we recommend using backspins and accurate clubs to prevent your ball from falling in the lava. If your Mii character has a high enough power stat, you can attempt to shoot your ball over the lava pools. Otherwise, it is best to follow the path of the fairway.

Getting Past Holes 7 and 8

Holes 7 and 8 will be a mix of snowy and volcanic environments. You will have to look out for both the difficult obstacles of the first three holes and large lava pools. If you fail this part of the course, you will be brought back to Hole 7.

Because of the unique terrain of this course, it is best to steer clear of the edge of cliffs and lava pools. If your ball is hit by one of the Mr. Blizzard's snowballs, it could cause it to fall over the edge.

The Final Hole

Before entering the final hole, Wario and Waluigi will leave you to finish the course alone. This means that you lose them as a lifeline and must get a Par or better to finish the course. Failing the final hole brings you back to the start of the hole.

For this course, we recommend using a long-distance club to launch your ball to the right island at the start of the course then to the left island before reaching the green. This way, you can avoid many of the obstacles and make it to the green in as few as three strokes.

Weather Conditions

Snowy and Windy

In Adventure Mode, most of Bowser Highlands is covered in snow, making it more hazardous to traverse the course. The course also experiences high amounts of wind which makes it more difficult to aim.

Weather Conditions and Effects

Recommended Equipment and Golf Clubs

Item	Description	How to Obtain
Blue Shell 3 Wood	Hits crisp, low-trajectory shots off of snow.	Price: 1500 Available in Bowser Highlands shop

In the first few holes of the course, this club helps get your ball quickly over the snowy terrain. However, we recommend supplementing it with another wood or driver for the more volcanic areas.

Item	Description	How to Obtain
Bullet Bill 7 Iron	Hits shots that are less susceptible to wind but harder to control.	Price: 1200 Available in Balmy Dunes shop

Due to the high winds of Bowser Highlands, we recommend bringing a wind-resistant club such as the Bullet Bill to help you make those precise shots.

Item	Description	How to Obtain
Ice Bro Approach Wedge	Increases control on ice and snow.	Price: 800 Available in Bowser Highlands shop

The Ice Bro Approach Wedge is useful when you manage to get stuck in heavily snowed areas and also does well when used in regular sand bunkers.

The Heat Attire is essential in the earlier stages of the course since you are constantly being pelted by snowballs from the Mr. Blizzards.
