Spiral Mountain

Spiral Mountain is a world featured in every game in the Banjo-Kazooie series so far. It gets its name from the large spiral shaped mountain at its center that is surrounded by a moat. In Banjo-Tooie, the grasses were destroyed by Gruntilda Winkybunion and her sister's minions.

Players start off here in all three of the main games where it acts like a tutorial for new players to the game, teaching them basic controls and moves to help them through the game. Banjo lives at the base of Spiral Mountain along with Kazooie, and Tooty. Gruntilda also lived here prior to the events of Banjo-Tooie.
