Training Barrels are a type of barrel found at the very beginning of Donkey Kong 64. They are floating barrels with Cranky Kong's face painted on them and serve as the tutorial of the game. Jumping in them transports Donkey Kong to a location inside a giant barrel and requires him to complete a timed challenge relating to one aspect of the game's controls.

Before giving Donkey Kong his first potion, Cranky requires him to complete his Training Barrels. The four barrels then spawn in a corner near DK's Tree House, called the Training Area. After Donkey Kong jumps in one of them, Squawks appears and explains the objective of the challenge and the controls required. The four challenges are as follows:

  • An area with a single tree and two vines, similar to Speedy Swing Sortie. Completing this one requires collecting the DK Coin at the other end of the vines.
  • Inside a water-filled location, similar to Splish Splash Salvage. To complete this one, the player needs to swim to the bottom and pick up a DK Coin.
  • An area with a single tree and five oranges. Picking up and throwing all of the oranges completes the challenge.
  • An area with a single tree and five barrels. Picking up and throwing all of the barrels completes the challenge.

After Donkey Kong completes one of the tasks, the corresponding Training Barrel explodes. When all four are completed, returning to Cranky causes him to give the potion for the Simian Slam, allowing Donkey Kong to hit a switch and access the main overworld.
