Zelda: Breath Of The Wild: All Shrine Locations And Maps

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is an incredible game, both in terms of critical acclaim and sheer size. Few aspects of Link's latest sprawling adventure exemplify this as well as the sheer number of shrines - miniature dungeons focused solely on puzzle solving.

Finding all of the shrines in Breath of the Wild is a massive undertaking, especially when you take time to consider that many of the shrines are hidden. Fortunately, we here at Nintendo Life have invested a great deal of time in uncovering every single shrine you can find in Hyrule.

We've sorted all of the shrines by the section of the map they're located on. As you may already know, you can unlock additional sections of the world map by climbing towers and activating them using Link's Sheikah Slate.

Because of that, we've decided to list each shrine belonging to a tower's map section below, along with handy screenshots showing where you can find each of these. It should be easy to walk through each area and find all of the shrines. Below that, you'll find some basic details or even some more detailed stuff for the trickier shrines in the group.

4. Ritaag Zumo - This shrine is found at the end of the spiral-shaped Rist Peninsula. You'll need to complete the "Into The Vortex" side quest to activate the shrine.

5. Tu Ka'loh - Found on Lomei Labyrinth Island in the northeast. You'll need to paraglide from the mainland to reach it. Finding your way through isn't that difficult but if you want to take the easy route (and you have enough stamina) then you canhe labyrinth, you can climb a wall and walk along the top of the labyrinth to reach the shrine.
