How to Reach the Third Shrine | Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
This guide shows how to reach the third shrine (Gutanbac Shrine) for The Closed Door main quest in the Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, released on 12th May 2023. The objective starts after you have completed the In-Isa Shrine at the location shown in the picture below.
Go down the stairs in front of the In-Isa shrine. Then turn right and continue until you reach the Ponside Cave as shown in the pictures below.
Enter the Ponside Cave and come out from the north side as shown in the pictures below. After coming out, use the Ultrahand ability to combine three logs and two fans to form a boat as shown in the second picture below. Place the boat into the water. Hop onto the boat. Then hit the fan with a sword. This will make the fan rotate and propel the boat forward, taking you to the other side.
Hop off the boat and climb up the stairs there to the top until you reach the Ponside Cave as shown in the pictures below.
Proceed inside the cave. It will be completely dark inside the cave. Use Giant Brightbloom Seed to light up the cave. Keep going ahead until you reach the forge as shown in the picture below. You can use the forge to process Zonaite ore into Zonai Charges and Crystallized Charges.
Now go to the opening near the forge. Talk to the Mining Construct there and he will give you three fans. Now use the Ultrahand ability to place a Mine Cart on the rails as shown in the picture below. Then attach a fan to the mine cart. Now climb up the Mine Cart and hit the fan with a sword. This will make the fan rotate, propelling the cart forward. The cart will take you to the top of the mountain at the location shown in the second picture below.
Hop off the cart. Proceed ahead and enter the Pit Cave as shown in the pictures below.
Before entering the cave, pick up Spicy Pepper at the entrance. Enter the cave and then hold the Spicy Pepper in your hand. Then go near the fire and cook Spicy Sauteed Peppers as shown in the pictures below.
Proceed ahead into the cave and when you come out from the other side, you will find yourself in a freezing area as shown in the picture below. Eat Spicy Sauteed Pepper to get some cold resistance.
After coming out from the cave, turn right and continue straight until you reach the Bottomless Cave as shown in the pictures below.
Proceed ahead in the cave. As you are going up the stairs, you will come across a plant as shown in the picture below. Defeat it and then open the chest behind it to get an Opal. Climb further up and you will come across another plant. Defeat it and open the chest there to get a Flame Emitter.
Exit the cave and climb up the roots as shown in the picture below to reach the top of the mountain.
Proceed ahead and you will find the Gutanbac Shrine on the right side as shown in the pictures below. Interact with giant stone at the marked location to enter the shrine.
