Aside from being home to Diddy and Dixie Kong, Donkey Kong Bananza's Racing Layer also has a few Banandium Gems to offer.

This layer is smaller than most, with only 10 Banandium Gems to collect, but we've put together the following map and list so you can find them all with ease.

If you want to check out some of the larger layers, be sure to roll back over to our full Banandium Gem Locations guide hub.
