“Head for the red streamer! Oh, and enjoy all that intense mountain climbing.”

—Olivia,Paper Mario: The Origami King

Overlook Mountain is a location inPaper Mario: The Origami King, a mountain road full of greenery. It is located in the redstreamer district. The streamer's spool can be found inOverlook Tower, located atop the mountain. Overlook Mountain is north ofPicnic Road. The four remainingShell Stones can be found here.

Layout[edit]

At the start of the trail is aRed Toad disguised as a sign. To the left is a treasure chest guarded by two origamiShy Guys. To the right is aNot-Bottomless Hole, a? Block containingIron Boots, and an origamiSpiny. To the right of this is a torn-out bench.Mario can use confetti to repair it, then sit on it to recoverHP. Up the steps is a small garden area. There are a few grasshoppers nearby - when hammered, they are revealed to be Green Toads. There is also a tree Mario can hammer to drop down an origami Spiny, an origamiParagoomba behind a shrub, a? Block containing a100-Coin, and a Red Toad disguised as a beetle. To the left of this are a fewKoopa Troopas gathered around aMonty Mole. They are auctioning off the greenShell Stone, which can be bought for as high as 10,000coins or as little as 300. If Mario does not agree to 300 coins, a Koopa Troopa buys it instead, and the stone must be bought off him for 1,500 coins.

Just after this is a red, taped pipe. Mario can pull off the tape and enter the pipe to reach a special area, where various different pipes can be entered after being unlocked through exploration. Next to the pipe is a Red Toad trapped in a rock. There is a tree nearby with a hole in its trunk Mario can fix with confetti. There is a gap in the shrubs here Mario can walk through to get to a lower ledge with a Not-Bottomless Hole and a crumpled Red Toad. To the right is a bridge - when Mario starts to cross, an origamiGoomba appears and summons aPaper Macho Goomba. Mario must let the Paper Macho Goomba run across the bridge, wait for it to walk back, and hammer the sticker on its back to weaken it. Once Mario defeats the Paper Macho Goomba, he can head left to find a Toad clinging to the wall. He must fill the Not-Bottomless Hole beneath him to rescue the Toad.

To the right is aSave Block in a bushy area. One of the shrubs moves a bit, and can be hammered to reveal an origami Goomba. Defeating it unlocks a Magic Circle, allowing Mario to use the1,000-Fold Arms to pull off some of the north wall, revealing a woundedDry Bones with the yellow Shell Stone. To the right, down the steps, there are some Toads stuck in the ground that can be pulled out. However, pulling out one of the Toads also reveals an origami Goomba, which chases him to the west side of the mountain. Down the next set of steps is a ? Block containing another 100-Coin. Here, there is a small dock with a Koopa Troopa, who has lost his lucky rock to a big fish. Mario must use the fishing rod to pull up the biggest origamiCheep Cheep, retrieving the blue Shell Stone. The Koopa Troopa tells him to keep it after realizing it belongs to the temple. Before leaving this area, Mario can head south to find a treasure chest in a small cave, containing a collectible treasure.

When Mario tries to scale the mountain some more, a set of origamiThwomps quickly appear and try to crush him. Mario must run out of the way, hammer a nearby tree to knock aSuper Star off it, get invincibility, and run through the Thwomps, getting plenty of confetti in the process. To the right is a ? Block containing a 100-Coin. Up ahead, at the peak of the mountain, is a Toad Tram station wrapped up in the red streamer. Up to the left isOverlook Tower on a pile of dirt. Mario can head down to the left to reveal a soccer area with threePaper Macho Shy Guys playing soccer with the red Shell Stone. After these Shy Guys are defeated, the Toads start to happily play soccer themselves.

Upon clearing theEarth Vellumental Temple and unlocking the abilities of theEarth Vellumental, Mario andOlivia can return to the peak of the mountain to access the tower. After clearing the red streamer, they can use the Toad Tram to reachAutumn Mountain. The Toad Tram also connects Overlook Mountain to Toad Town.

Green, Yellow, Blue and Red Shell Stones	Each of the stones requires different task to be performed and all of them are required to progress: The Green Shell Stone is located at an auction run by a Monty Mole auctioneer near the shiny red Warp Pipe, with three Koopa Troopas already in attendance. Initially, the Monty Mole auctions the Stone for 10,000 coins, but Mario can lower the price to 300 coins before the Koopas pool in to buy it, at which point Mario must purchase it from them for 1,500 coins. The Yellow Shell Stone is near the second Save Block. Mario must fight a nearby origami Goomba that is hiding in a moving bush, which activates a Magic Circle. He then must peel off the wall in front to find a Dry Bones holding the Shell Stone. The Blue Shell Stone is also near the second Save Block. Mario must head right and go down a slope. There, a Koopa Troopa will teach Mario how to fish. When he reels in a large origami Cheep Cheep, he must defeat it to obtain the Shell Stone. The Red Shell Stone is near the top of the mountain, left of the tower, being kicked around by three Paper Macho Shy Guys like a soccer ball. Mario must knock one of them down and pick up the Shell Stone while it is stunned after leading the stone to be kicked at its position.
