Hidden high in the Hebra Mountains, Tenmaten Shrine challenges players with icy terrain, clever puzzles, and a secret entrance that’s easy to miss. This guide shows you exactly where to find it, how to reach it safely, and the best way to solve its unique test of skill.
Tenmaten Shrine location
Tenmaten Shrine is found in the Hyrule Ridge region, northwest of Hyrule Field. Its coordinates are roughly (-0577, 1551, 0006), sitting near the New Serenne Stable and just west of the columned ruins visible from the hilltop. The shrine is easily spotted once players travel along the road connecting the stable and the Tabantha region. Fast travel can be used once activated, making future visits more convenient for exploration or resource gathering in the surrounding area.
Tenmaten Shrine is found within the Hyrule Field region. Its exact location is (-0594, 1551, -0014). Both Lindor’s Brow and Lookout LandingSkyview Towers will get you close, but it’s a long flight to get there. Serutabomac Shrine on the floating Hyrule Castle is much closer.
Tenmaten Shrine is located underground inside a cave that’s accessible through the nearby Elma Knolls Well at (-0669, 1349, 0088).
When you drop into the well, you’ll fall onto a ledge with several brightbloom seeds and brightcaps, along with a torch and (unlit) campfire. That’s your clue that everything farther down will be very dark.
When you drop through the next hole, you’ll fall into some water – swim north to find land. To continue, you’ll need some light. The Miner’s Armor works well if you have it, but brightbloom seeds attached to arrows get the job done too.
Deal with the Horriblins and continue down the slope. There’s a chest on the left with a royal broadsword inside. At the water’s edge, you’ll find two large planks. Farther out, you’ll find a chest (with a sapphire inside), and more planks.
Get across the water however you like – you can swim using the planks for rest stops and the Zora Armor to swim faster, or build yourself an airboat if you have Zonai fan handy. Stick to the left as you go.
On the far side, deal with the Fire Like, and then enter Tenmaten Shrine.
Tenmaten Shrine walkthrough
Tenmaten Shrine tests your skill with light reflection and timing. Use mirrors and Zonai devices to redirect beams toward crystal targets across multiple chambers. Watch for moving platforms and reposition mirrors carefully to keep the light connected. Completing the main puzzle opens the final room, where you can claim a valuable treasure chest before obtaining the Light of Blessing.
