Hawa Koth Shrine Location

Below the Gerudo Great Skeleton

Hawa Koth Shrine Location
Map	Overworld

This shrine is found under the Gerudo Great Skeleton southwest of Gerudo Town. To get there, you will need to pass through a sandstorm that will interfere with your map.

Just go straight southwest of the town and watch out for a giant skeleton. You will encounter some enemies along the way, so we recommend using a Sand Seal to get there faster and safer.

Hawa Koth Shrine Walkthrough

	Shrine Solution
1	Use Magnesis to place the two metal blocks side by side near the crystal to power the switch then proceed to the next room.
2	Grab the metal sphere with Magnesis and unwrap it from the pillar. Place it beside the switch to activate the platform. Turn right as you enter the room and you will see a chest underwater. Grab it with Magnesis and open it for an Ancient Core.
3	Go up and grab another sphere with a crystal inside. You can pick it up or use Magnesis to move it. Letting it touch a switch will make the platform move so keep this in mind.
4	Deal with the Guardian Scouts up ahead with weapons or by activating the switches near them using the crystal. This will flip the Guardians into the water and destroy them.
5	Bring the crystal safely to the other side and place it on the pedestal near the gate. Place the crystal on the pedestal on the right wall to reveal a path to a treasure chest containing a Gold Rupee.
6	Go right to the next room and before you step on the button, use Stasis on the center block on the bottom row.
7	Step on the switch then grab the metal block on the left with Magnesis. Slide it to the right so it is aligned to the second and third set of stone blocks.
8	Get off the button to unlock the nearby room with a gear inside. Open the treasure chest behind the gear for a Sapphire.
9	Bring the gear back to the main room with Magnesis and place it between the two gears above to open the gate.
10	Examine the altar to receive a Spirit Orb.
