1-Up Mushroom Locations - Rainbow Ride

Discover the exact locations of all nine 1-Up Mushrooms in Super Mario 64's Rainbow Ride level. Follow our guide to grab every extra life!

Alright, let's grab some extra lives in Rainbow Ride! This level has a bunch of 1-Up Mushrooms hidden away, and some of them can be a little tricky to spot. Don't worry, I'll walk you through exactly where to find all nine of them.

1. Mushroom 1: You'll find this one on top of a big stone platform. It's located right under the very first swinging platform you'll encounter in the level. Just land on the stone platform, and it's yours!
2. Mushroom 2: Head over to the area with the tricky triangles. You need to hit the exclamation switch there to make the triangles flip over. Once they're inverted, look up! This 1-Up Mushroom is sitting on top of the farthest triangle. Make sure the triangle is flipped before you try to grab it.
3. Mushroom 3: This one's a bit of a challenge. Use the magical carpets to get inside the giant house floating in the sky. Once you're at the doorway of the house, you'll get transported onto the maze area where all the red coins are. It's pretty windy up there, so be careful not to get blown off! Look for a yellow block on this platform – that's where the mushroom is.
4. Mushroom 4: Another one inside the giant house in the sky. Again, ride the magical carpets to get inside. Stand still in the doorway, and you'll be sent up to the maze area with the red coins. This platform is super windy, so watch your step! Make your way to the very end of this windy platform. You'll see a single donut lift all by itself. Stand on it, and it'll fall to the ground. Once it does, a 1-Up Mushroom will appear and come right to you.
5. Mushroom 5: You'll find this 1-Up Mushroom on top of the giant house in the sky, inside a yellow block. Remember, you'll need to use the magical carpets to reach the house itself.
6. Mushroom 6: When you're riding the magical carpet towards the giant house in the sky, take the right carpet path. Keep an eye out – there's a 1-Up Mushroom sitting on the second set of donut lifts you'll pass. You'll need to be quick to grab it before your carpet moves too far ahead!
7. Mushroom 7: This mushroom is located on top of the spinning platform that has blue fire shooting out of it. To get to this platform, you need to take the left carpet path, the one that heads towards the ship. Be fast, or your carpet might just disappear on you!
8. Mushroom 8: You'll find this 1-Up Mushroom right on the very tip of the flying ship in the sky. To get to the ship, you'll need to take the left carpet path.
9. Mushroom 9: Once you're on top of the ship, climb all the way to the very top of the pole in the middle of the ship. From the top of the pole, jump off. A 1-Up Mushroom will pop out and fly towards you.
