Valley of Bowser 1

Go right. If the red switch palace is activated, the giant mole will not be a problem.

Go up the ledge and watch out for the Charging Chuck.

Go right and drop down.

Proceed to the mass of blocks blocking the passage. Remove two blocks, then grab the third as a Charging Chuck smashes through them. Throw the block at the Charging Chuck.

Continue onward and hit a block when the giant mole is on it to defeat it.

Collect the Dragon Coin.

Retreat back, then go up and right.

When you reach a hole, stand at the edge and wait for the giant mole to walk down it before continuing.

At the bottom of the step-like hill, wait for the mole to pass by and head up.

At the fork, go straight ahead, past the mole, and get the Dragon Coin at the end of the passage.

Go back and take the lower route.

Take the higher of the two routes presented.

Get past the giant mole and jump to the passage opposite.

When you reach the giant mole, retreat to the more open part of the passage and jump over it.

Carry onward and take the lower path of the next fork to reach the midway checkpoint (an auto-save point you restart from on death).

Go take the upper path.

Get past the mole.

Use the mole in the pit of piranha plants as a means of crossing a gap.

Head over the gap. If you activated the blue ! block below, use it to get a 3-Up Moon.

Drop down the gap you just crossed and go right.

Drop down and take the higher of the two forks to get the third Dragon Coin. You cannot exit via the gap above.

Hit the invisible blocks here; you will need to cross them later.

Go back and then up, using the giant mole that drops down.

You will come across three paths; take the middle path for a Dragon Coin.

Go to the lower path.

Follow the passage and avoid the Charging Chucks that smash through yellow blocks.

Jump across the gap and go to the end to get the fifth and final Dragon Coin.

Retreat back to the gap you just crossed and drop down.

Optionally, hit the yellow block here and climb the vine that comes out of it to a pipe. This pipe leads to a 1-Up minigame. Finishing the minigame returns you to a pipe under the midway gate.

Otherwise, go right, past the giant mole, and mind the Charging Chuck that approaches through blue blocks.

Enter the pipe to reach the level's exit.
