The Legend of Zelda: locations
Explore key places and landmarks.
Hyrule
The open overworld connects forests, lakes, mountains, and hidden labyrinths. Explore caves for merchants, helpful residents, equipment, and clues to the next discovery.
Lost Woods
A repeating forest crossroads conceals the route toward the Graveyard. An old woman's clue gives the sequence needed to make it through.
Death Mountain
The rugged northern region holds dangerous enemies and Ganon's hidden lair. Link's search for the Triforce of Wisdom ultimately leads toward these mountains.
Lake Hylia
The large central lake surrounds dungeon entrances on small islands. Its southwestern island requires the Raft, making water crossings part of further exploration.
Spectacle Rock
These twin rock formations sit in Death Mountain. In the First Quest, a Bomb reveals the entrance to the lair hidden beneath them.
