The Goron Racetrack[1] (ゴロンレース場, Goron Rēsuba) is an area in Majora's Mask. As its name implies, it is one large raceway. The Patriarch's Race is held every spring at the Goron Racetrack. The entrance to the Racetrack is blocked by a large bolder. Opening it requires a Powder Keg[1].

The Goron Racetrack has many trees growing on the track. Normally a raceway would not have such obstacles. Whether these trees are there intentionally or the Gorons simply have not cleared them remains to be known. There are several bomb flowers planted throughout the course as well. These objects are possibly left alone to serve as obstacles for the competitors. Prior to starting a race, many Magic Jars are placed around the track, which must be picked up to prolong how long Gorons (or at least Goron Link)) can roll at high speeds.

The Racetrack crosses itself a few times. The stone bridges that make up these crossings do not have any guard rails. If an unlucky competitor happens to fall off, then he is effectively out of the race. There are many vantage points throughout the track from which spectators can watch a race. The Racetrack is always open to anyone who wishes to use it.

If Link wins the race, he will be awarded a bottle of Gold Dust

Trivia

  • A remix of the race theme from Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask can be heard when racing.
