Sand Canyon is the third level in Kirby's Dream Land 3. It is primarily based on a North American desert, containing vast, rocky wastelands, various stone formations and cacti. The boss fought at the end of it is Pon Con.
Cut-scene
Kirby, Rick and Coo are playing a ball game using Gooey as the ball, while ChuChu is admiring a flower. Coo overshoots, causing Gooey to collide with the wall, then fall and squish the flower. ChuChu gets angry as the others watch in dismay, which then results in her punching Gooey very hard into the wall. After this, ChuChu blushes as the others stare at her in fear.
Stage Synopsis
The following is a brief rundown of the stages of Sand Canyon and their contents. For a full guide on how to get the Heart Stars in this region, visit the Heart Star page.
Stage 1
Room 1 - The stage begins on a series of rocky outcroppings. Kirby will encounter flowers and mushrooms along the way, which he may want to be selective in interacting with. The path continues past cliffs and through tight spaces, until reaching a door on the other side.
Room 2 - In this small area, Kirby will meet Polof. This creature appears nowhere else in the game, and may actually come in handy for something. Kirby could attack it if he wants to, though. In the room after that, Kirby can choose between Rick and Pitch before moving on.
Room 3 - This next room is a winding tunnel with many enemies inset.
Room 4 - Another winding tunnel - this one zig-zagging downward. Its slopes are good for rolling stones.
Room 5 - This path leads out of the tunnels, into some decidedly prehistoric-looking enemies. After a very long trek past hordes of these foes, the stage exit can be reached.
The last room contains a mushroom like the ones in the first room. If it is pleased, it will give Kirby a Heart Star.

Trivia
- Sand Canyon is notable for being the only level in Kirby's Dream Land 3 (besides the Hyper Zone) that did not debut in its predecessor, Kirby's Dream Land 2; the latter does, however, contain a similar level known as Red Canyon, which may have served as the inspiration for this one.
- Stage 2 features a remix of the famous Gourmet Race theme.
