Tears Of The Kingdom Lake Saria Guide

Lake Saria is a tricky spot to reach in Tears of the Kingdom. It’s located in the southwest portion of Korok Forest, and though it may seem simple to get there at first, it’s actually a bit more complex. Luckily once you know what to do it really isn’t so bad. So, here’s a quick guide for reaching Lake Saria in Tears of the Kingdom.

Tears of the Kingdom: How to get to Lake Saria

If you try to get to Lake Saria via the Lost Woods to the south, you’ll likely be in a loop without making much progress. It is the Lost Woods after all, and we all know how confusing it can be. This is undoubtedly annoying since we’re so close to our location, but don’t worry. The solution to this is rather simple, and it first involves getting to the sky.

The quickest way to reach the sky from the Korok Forest is by using the Thyplo Ruins Skyview Tower to the north. So head there and land on one of the Sky Islands overlooking the Lost Woods. Be careful since there’s a Flux Construct up here, but you can quickly deal with it to get some nice materials. Once you’re ready, look over to Korok Forest from the sky, and you’ll notice a large amount of thick fog over Korok Forest. You may also notice there’s a patch of fog with a glowing green light. This is Ninjis Shrine, and it’s where we need to go. If you’ve already unlocked this Shrine, just fast-travel to this point.

Once you get to Ninjis Shrine, the way to Lake Saria is much more obvious. Don’t just run off to Lake Saria straight away since this is still the Lost Woods, and you’ll be sent back for going the wrong way. Instead, look for a path of Silent Mushrooms. These glow blue, so they’re hard to miss if you look out for them. Simply follow these Silent Mushrooms along from tree to tree and you’ll eventually reach Lake Saria. Just head in the general direction of the lake and you’ll find them.

Lake Saria has a handful of rewards for you to find including a variety of mushrooms and a fancy chest. So if you’ve got some spare time, it’s well worth visiting. Once that’s done, there’s plenty of the stuff to do in Tears of the Kingdom. This includes building your own house, and finding the elusive Light Dragon.
