Template:Level Surface Tension is the sixteenth level in Donkey Kong Land III. Located in the north of Blackforest Plateau, it takes place on the banks of the river that meanders through the area. The vegetation, unlike in Donkey Kong Country 3 's "River" levels, is rather short and sparse, as it mostly consists of small conifers, mushrooms and lichen.

To complete this level, Dixie Kong and Kiddy Kong must thread their way on the river banks, through hordes of enemies. "Surface Tension" is quite similar to "Riverbank Riot", but it features many more baddies, which makes it harder. Although they are likely to be very cold, since the northern area of Blackforest Plateau is occupied by taigas, the waters are infested with Lurchins, Kocos and Bounty Basses. On the banks, the Kongs will encounter Buzzes, Krimps, Krumples, Bristles and Sneeks. This wide variety of enemies will force the player to resort to different attacks, insofar as all those baddies cannot be defeated the same way (for instance, Krimps can only be attacked from the back, while Bristles can only be attacked from the front; Krumples can only be defeated by Kiddy).
