Finding all three bananas in Donkey Kong Bananza’s Nostalgia Country level can be trickier than it looks. The first banana is hidden high up in DK’s hut, out of reach at first glance. It seems like you might need some extra help or a special skill to get there, but if you double jump, you can reach this classic callback and grab the first banana of the level.
Luckily, the other two bananas are much easier to spot, making the rest of the level simpler to complete. Below, I’ll explain exactly how to find all three bananas in this bonus stage.
Where to find all three bananas in Donkey Kong Bananza’s Nostalgia Country
Like other challenge levels, Nostalgia Country has three special Bananda Gems you need to collect—one near the start, one in the middle, and one at the end. The middle two are easy to see. Here’s how you find each one:
- Start outside DK’s hut: From the level’s entrance, grab a piece of dirt from the ground. Double jump to the left and climb onto the top of the nearby cliff. This puts you right outside DK’s treehouse. Head inside, jump on the tire, and punch upwards to smash the banana hanging there.
- Second banana: This one is just after the first barrel cannon section. Keep an eye out as you progress through that part.
- Third (final) banana: You’ll find this at the very end of the level, near the exit barrel cannon.
Once you’ve collected all three bananas, you’re ready to move forward through the Hilltop Layer and into the Canyon Layer—one of the biggest sections of Donkey Kong Bananza.
If you’re aiming for even more bananas, don’t forget to grab all three in the “Hanging on Roof Road” challenge too! Every banana you gather helps toward your progress in the post-game after you finish the main story.
