Meteor Gorge

 Meteor Gorge '''is the first race course of Barin and the fourth race course of the adventure mode in Crash Nitro Kart. It is always snowing. There is heat and lava underneath the ground as shown when a racer misses a jump. The ice on the track will make the racers go faster, while the ice on the sides of the track will make the racers go slower. It is used in the Red Gem Cup.

There is a shortcut near the end of the lap. In order to do this, the racer must jump to the left of the main path, onto a platform in the middle of a lava pit, and then back onto the main path. This is the location of the letter K in the CNK Challenge.

Strangely, the next track is already available when Barin is first loaded, meaning that players can complete the next track and then do this one.

Polar has the best time in this track, which in turn appears to be dedicated to him. The track is also similar to the Crash Team Racing track Polar Pass.
