{{quote2|There are rumors of a lost world located deep beneath [[Crocodile Isle]]. It has been said that this is the source of the [[Kremling]]s, and that there is valuable treasure to be found there, including the elusive true ending of the game. Only the most clever explorers will find this place.|''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' instruction booklet, page 22}}  

The '''Lost World''' is a secret area and world of [[Crocodile Isle]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. In both games, the area is guarded by [[Klubba]] at his tollbooth, [[Klubba's Kiosk]], as he was ordered by [[King K. Rool|Kaptain K. Rool]] to do so. The Lost World is the power source of Crocodile Isle. The energy is generated from [[Krocodile Kore]], a temple shaped like a [[Kremling]] head integrated into a volcano in the world's central lake. Krocodile Kore also acts like a geothermal vent from sending out an upward stream of purple, white and blue energy. The Lost World has a variety of climates, including jungles, frozen caverns, and volcanic. There are tall, gray, and white-capped rocky hills that encircle the upper part of the location. Unlike other worlds, each level of the Lost World has only one [[Bonus room|Bonus Level]] with a [[DK Coin|Video Game Hero Coin]] as the prize. In the [[Donkey Kong Country 2 (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]] of ''Donkey Kong Country 2'', like the other worlds, the overworld view of the Lost World was redesigned, and shows a wider, zoomed in display of its hosted environments.

In the ending of both ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' and ''Donkey Kong Land 2'', K. Rool gets launched into the energy flow of Krocodile Kore. He blocks the flow of energy, causing it to build up and eventually explode Krocodile Kore. Diddy and Dixie escape from the Lost World before it and Crocodile Isle sink underwater.
