Apogek Shrine location
Apogek Shrine is located on the small island in the Lanayru Great Spring region, just east of the Zora Domain. You can find it on a floating platform above the waterfall near Mipha Court. To reach it, use the nearby sky islands or glide from a high point in the Zora Domain using a paraglider or Zonai devices to cover the distance safely.
You’ll find the Apogek Shrine in the Lanayru Great Spring region of Hyrule. The coordinates are (3887, -0217, 0164). If you’re having trouble spotting it, look under the huge stone platform on the side of the Ja’Abu Ridge – it’s hiding a bit!
Apogek Shrine ‘Wings on the Wind’ walkthrough
The Apogek Shrine, titled “Wings on the Wind,” challenges players to make creative use of Zonai devices to glide across large gaps and reach higher platforms. Begin by combining fans with wing gliders to ride air currents and adjust direction mid-flight. Each section tests timing and positioning, requiring precise launches to land safely on narrow ledges. The shrine’s final area features a longer flight path leading directly to the goal, where mastering your angle and thrust placement ensures a smooth landing before claiming the Light of Blessing.
The first thing you’ll see when you enter the Apogek Shrine is some Zonai gliders soaring off a platform. That’s because this shrine is all about flying, while also moving a ball into a divot that’ll open the shrine’s gate.
1. There’s a Zonai glider waiting on the platform to your left. Grab it with Ultrahand and move it onto the platform you’re standing on – make sure it’s far enough back so it won’t slide off just yet.
2. Take the ball from the left-side of the room and use Ultrahand to glue it to the back of the glider.
3. Move the glider up on the rails a little bit so it’ll slide off and into the air.
4. Glide to the lower platform, remove the ball from the glider, and place it into the divot in the ground. The gate ahead will open.
5. There are four fans on two small platforms leading onto the higher platform ahead. Use Ultrahand to move two of these fans onto the higher platform. Then use another fan, hitting it to activate it, to get up there yourself using Link’s personal glider.
6. To the left side of the room on an even higher platform, there’s a chest. Bring a fan over there and soar up to grab the mighty zonaite spear inside.
7. Zonai gliders will intermittently spawn on the rails at the front of the platform. Grab one using Ultrahand and move it off the rails. Then use Ultrahand to fuse two fans to the end of the glider.
8. Move the glider back to the rails before hopping on. Hit the fans to activate them to get enough juice to make it to the next platform, which is pretty far away.
