Zelda Tears of the Kingdom – Activate and Repair Ulri Mountain Skyview Tower

Guides

Hidden high above Akkala, the Ulri Mountain Tower guards one of Hyrule’s trickiest ascent challenges. Between perilous cliffs, soaring debris, and a few cunning Zonai mechanics, reaching its console takes timing, creativity, and a touch of courage.

Figuring out all of the Skyview Tower locations is merely the first step to unlocking Hyrule’s map in its entirety. Below you’ll find a walkthrough to solve the Ulri Mountain Tower in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

How to unlock the Ulri Mountain Skyview Tower

Reaching the Ulri Mountain Skyview Tower requires fixing its exterior console, which is surrounded by malfunctioning machinery. Speak with Sawson near the tower to learn that flying debris has damaged the panel. Use Ultrahand to collect the missing part lodged on the nearby cliff and reattach it to the console. Once repaired, the tower door opens, allowing you to activate the terminal and map the surrounding region.

The Ulri Mountain Skyview tower is located northeast of Tarrey Town in the Akkala region. The tower can be found at the coordinates (3491, 2019, 0188). At the entrance, you’ll meet Sawson, who tells you that an Aerocuda, the flying beast, flew off with the tower’s control panel. To activate the tower, you’ll need to get it back.

Since the Aerocuda is flying in the air, you’ll need to use a ranged weapon to take it down. The Aerocuda can be a little tricky to hit because it’s very agile in the air. The easiest way to defeat the Aerocuda is by Fusing an arrow with a Keese eyeball and using its homing ability. That way, you don’t have to aim it precisely. Once the Aerocuda has been shot out of the sky, make sure to return the tower’s control panel to its rightful place, and activate it to reveal a portion of the map.
