Peach's Castle Grounds is the fifth course inMario Golf: Toadstool Tour. Its holes vary in setting, featuring a combination of forests, islands, and clifftops above the clouds. Some holes haveWarp Pipes in them which transport the ball to another location if the player manages to land a shot in one. Large, bouncy mushrooms are found throughout the course; if the ball somehow stops on top of a mushroom cap, the player will still be able to take their next shot from on top of it, but they will also be assessed a one-stroke penalty for a"tree hazard". Holes 2 and 12 featureChain Chomps; if the ball lands in their territory, it counts as out of bounds.Peach's Castle appears on the first and last holes of the course.
