* Gorilla Glacier in ''[[Donkey Kong Country (video game)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' is the classic icy version, as is K3 from ''[[Donkey Kong Country]] 3''. Razor Ridge, also from ''DKC3'', is a more traditional example.

* The Red Mountain in ''[[The Elder Scrolls III Morrowind]]'' is a variation: the main dangers, instead of being very long drops, are the creatures infected with blight and corprus emanating from the crater. The Dagoth Ur Facility also has [[Lethal Lava Land]] elements.

** ''[[The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim]]'' sends you up the Throat of the World, the highest or second highest mountain in all Tamriel (sources disagree). It is quite a bit easier to die from very long drops than what was the case with Red Mountain, which is rather encouraging, considering Red Mountain is supposed to be the ''other'' contender for highest mountain on the continent.

* The natural habitat of the Fire Dragon in ''[[Gothic]] II''. No actual lava, as the volcano seems to be dormant, but plenty of long drops and an assortment of fire-related nasties to battle - although the latter can be avoided by {{spoiler|transforming into a bug and just crawling past them. They ignore anything that small}}. It's possible to make it all the way up to the crater and [[That One Boss|the dragon itself]] without a single fight.

* Death Peak in ''[[Chrono Trigger]]'' is another snowy version. Your first obstacle is even passing through a very windy area without getting sent back to the start.

* The "Volcanic" levels in the ''[[Gradius]]'' series. Sometimes there are erupting volcanoes, ''III'''s turns into an [[Underground Level]] halfway, and ''IV'' combines it with [[Lethal Lava Land]].
