Hidden beneath the icy winds of Hebra Mountains, the Kiuyoyou Shrine challenges players with clever puzzles that test timing and precision. This guide shows exactly where to find it and how to master each step of its chilling trial.
Kiuyoyou Shrine location
Kiuyoyou Shrine is situated in the Great Hyrule Forest region, just south of the Lost Woods. You can find it at coordinates (1063, 1653, 0166), near the edge of Lake Saria. The easiest route to reach it is from the Woodland Stable or the Ekochiu Shrine nearby, then follow the main path north until you approach the forest entrance. The shrine stands on a small rise surrounded by trees, making it easy to spot once you get close.
Kiuyoyou Shrine is in the northeastern part of the Lindor’s Brow region. The exact coordinates are (-1106, 2090, 0104).
Kiuyoyou Shrine walkthrough
Kiuyoyou Shrine challenges players with puzzles centered on ice manipulation and precise timing. Use the nearby water sources and frost abilities to shape ice blocks that fit into slots or raise pathways. Pay attention to how each switch reacts to the block’s position, as correct placement is key to accessing new areas. After solving the main puzzle and freezing structures correctly, the path to the final chest and the Shrine’s completion point will become clear.
Kiuyoyou Shrine is an introduction to how Tears of the Kingdom‘s elements interact – like how fire melts ice.
1. As you enter Kiuyoyou Shrine, you’ll see some jets of flame on your right, a giant block of ice on your left, and a button under a pillar a little farther left. The problem is that the ice block is too big to fit onto the button.
2. Grab the ice block with Ultrahand and carry it over to the flames. Wave it in and out to melt it a little.
3. Ultrahand the ice over to the button and place it on top to open the gate leading left.
4. Through the gate, ride the wind all the way across to the far side. There’s a large (fireproof) stone panel leaning against the wall. On the left, a block of ice will fall into another set of flame jets.
5. Grab that panel and carry it to the left to block the flames and save the ice from melting.
6. Retrieve the stone panel and attach it to the top of the ice with Ultrahand. Set the ice on the sloped ramp covered in spikes ice side down (the panel won’t slide over the spikes).
7. Paraglide down to meet it at the bottom.
8. Grab the block of ice and place it on the shelf to the right of the door.
9. Ascend through the shelf, and then climb onto the cube.
10. Open the chest there for a Zonaite spear.
