World 1 – Pipe-Rock Plateau Special World Entrance
Level: Bulrush Express
To find the secret exit in World 1, play through the Bulrush Express level normally until you reach the very end. Near the standard goal pole, you’ll see a brick wall on the right side, past the red warp pipe. Use the charging Bulrush or an Elephant Mario trunk smash to break through this wall. Follow the newly revealed path to find the alternate flagpole. Completing the level this way opens up access to Sproings in the Forest, Cosmic Hoppos, and Expert Badge Challenge Jet Run 1. Finish these levels to reveal the World 1 warp point to the Special World on your map.
World 2 – Fluff-Puff Peaks Special World Entrance
Level: Jump! Jump! Jump!
Successfully completing the demanding Jump! Jump! Jump! course is the first step. Finishing this level unlocks a new cloud pathway in Fluff-Puff Peaks. This path leads towards the Special World entrance, but first, you must conquer the short Spring Feet 1 badge challenge located along this new route. Overcome this challenge to access the second Special World warp point.

World 3 – Shining Falls Special World Entrance
Location: Royal Seed Mansion
Finding the entrance related to Mario Wonder World 3 Secret Exits doesn’t involve a traditional level exit. Instead, after you have successfully cleared World 3 (Shining Falls) by collecting its Royal Seed, return to the Royal Seed Mansion. Upon your return, Master Poplin will acknowledge your progress and reveal a new path leading directly from the mansion to the World 3 warp point for the Special World. No hidden level exit is required here, just revisit the mansion post-completion.
World 4 – Sunbaked Desert Special World Entrance
Level: Secrets of Shova Mansion
Begin by completing the Secrets of Shova Mansion level. This will unlock two subsequent stages: Flight of the Bloomps and Expert Badge Challenge Invisibility 1. You must successfully beat both of these newly accessible levels. Once Flight of the Bloomps and the Invisibility 1 challenge are cleared, the warp point connecting Sunbaked Desert to the Special World will appear on your map.
World 5 – Fungi Mines Special World Entrance
Level: Operation Poplin Rescue
Similar to World 3, this entrance doesn’t involve a standard secret exit flagpole. After completing the main story objectives in Fungi Mines, return to the Operation Poplin Rescue level location. Interact with the Poplins here; they will excavate the area and uncover the hidden warp point leading from Fungi Mines to the Special World.
World 6 – Deep Magma Bog Special World Entrance
Requirement: Collect 25 Wonder Seeds in World 6
Accessing the Special World from Deep Magma Bog requires diligent collection rather than finding a single secret exit. You need to gather a total of 25 Wonder Seeds from the various levels within this world. Once you’ve reached this threshold, you will unlock the Expert Badge Challenge: Jet Run 2. Complete this tough challenge, which will then unlock two more: Expert Badge Challenge: Invisibility 2 and Expert Badge Challenge: Spring Feet 2. Beat all three of these expert badge challenges to finally reveal the Deep Magma Bog entrance to the Special World.
Petal Isles Special World Entrance
Level: Wiggler Race: Spelunking!
The final gateway to the Special World is found in the central Petal Isles area. You need to find and win the Wiggler Race: Spelunking! level. Once you’ve successfully beaten the Wiggler in this underground race, a new travel point will appear on the Petal Isles map, situated near the first stage of this hub world, granting access to the Special World.
Conclusion
Finding every secret exit and warp point to the Special World in Super Mario Bros. Wonder requires completing specific levels in unique ways, collecting enough Wonder Seeds, or revisiting key locations like the Royal Seed Mansion for World 3. Each entrance unlocks a new, challenging stage in the Special World, offering some of the game’s toughest platforming trials. Now that you know how to find them all, prepare yourself for the ultimate tests that await!
