'''Bowser Castle 1''' is a race course from ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'', appearing as the fourth race of the [[Mushroom Cup]]. It was subsequently reused in ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]'' as the fourth track of the [[Classic course#Mario Kart: Super Circuit|Extra Mushroom Cup]]. It is a stone road residing in a pool of lava. The music for this course (and [[Bowser Castle 2|subsequent]] [[Bowser Castle 3|Bowser Castle]] courses) is a variation of [[Bowser]]'s battle theme from ''[[Super Mario World]]'' | '''Bowser Castle 1''' is a race course from ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'', appearing as the fourth race of the [[Mushroom Cup]].

As with the other Bowser Castle tracks, Bowser Castle 1 is composed entirely of straightaways and 90° turns. There are also [[Thwomp]]s as obstacles, which always appear in groups of four and remain airborne on the first lap. The course begins with a brief straight followed by a left turn and the only set of [[? Panel]]s. There is then a straightaway with the first row of Thwomps. Racers then take a left turn followed by a straightaway which has three [[Dash Panel|zippers]] on alternating sides of the track. After two more left turns, the first of which has more Thwomps, racers use three wide jump pads to cross over the lava; just before the last jump pad is another row of Thwomps. Racers then take two right turns and use another three jump pads to cross over the lava. Afterwards there is two more left turns, the first of which has one last group of Thwomps, and racers reach the finish line soon after. | As with the other Bowser Castle tracks, Bowser Castle 1 is composed entirely of straightaways and 90° turns.
