Guide: All Mario Wonder Secret World Entrances
The Special World represents the pinnacle of challenge in Super Mario Bros. Wonder, serving as the game’s eighth world. Each level within boasts a demanding five-star difficulty rating and contains two valuable Wonder Seeds. Accessing this demanding zone isn’t straightforward; it requires discovering specific Mario Wonder Secret World Entrances scattered throughout the Flower Kingdom.
This guide details how to reach the Special World by locating every hidden propeller flower portal across the six main worlds and the central Petal Isles hub, leading you to Super Mario Bros. Wonder‘s toughest stages.
W1 Pipe-Rock Plateau Secret World Entrance
The path to the Special World from W1 Pipe-Rock Plateau is cleverly concealed. To reveal it, you must first uncover the secret exit within the Bullrush Express level. Finding this alternate exit also grants you that level’s third Wonder Seed. Once unlocked, the new path takes you through Sproings in the Twilight Forest, Cosmic Hoppos, and the Expert Badge Challenge: Jet Run 1. Completing these levels grants access to the propeller flower leading to Pipe-Rock Plateau Special Bounce, Bounce, Bounce.

W2 Fluff-Puff Peaks Secret World Entrance
Reaching the Special World entrance in W2 Fluff-Puff Peaks involves following the upper path branching off after the Jump! Jump! Jump! level. Continue past the Expert Badge Challenge: Spring Feet 1 to find the propeller flower. This entrance transports you directly to Fluff-Puff Peaks Special Climb to the Beat.

W3 Shining Falls Secret World Entrance
Initially, the W3 Shining Falls Special World entrance is hidden. To make it appear, you need to complete the world and then return to the Royal Seed Mansion for a second visit. This revisit triggers the appearance of the propeller flower, which will take you to Shining Falls Special Triple Threat Deluge.

W4 Sunbaked Desert Secret World Entrance
Similar to W1, the W4 Sunbaked Desert entrance requires finding a secret path. This path is revealed by discovering the secret exit (and third Wonder Seed) in the Secrets of Shova Mansion level. Following this newly opened route leads you through Flight of the Bloomps and Expert Badge Challenge: Invisibility 1. The propeller flower at the end takes you to Sunbaked Desert Special Pole Block Allure.

W6 Deep Magma Bog Secret World Entrance
Unlike many others, the W6 Deep Magma Bog entrance isn’t hidden behind a secret exit, but requires significant progress within the world itself. You must collect a minimum of 25 Wonder Seeds within Deep Magma Bog. This unlocks the Expert Badge Challenge: Jet Run 2. Completing this, followed by Expert Badge Challenge: Invisibility 2 and Expert Badge Challenge: Spring Feet 2, finally opens the path to the Special World propeller flower. This entrance leads to Deep Magma Bog Special Solar Roller.

Petal Isles Secret World Entrance
The Petal Isles Special World entrance is the most straightforward to find. As you first enter the Petal Isles hub world coming from Pipe-Rock Plateau, you will walk directly past this propeller flower. It’s located prominently on the main path and doesn’t require any special conditions to access beyond reaching the Petal Isles. This flower transports you to Petal Isles Special Way of the Goomba.
