The Eldin Volcano Walkthrough is a full guide for scaling Eldin Volcano, reaching Goron City, and entering the Eldin Temple.

Eldin Volcano Trail

• After completing Hyrule Castle, Zelda will meet with the King of Hyrule and learn about three large rifts, one of which is on top of Eldin Volcano. A mark is made on Zelda's map, located west of Hyrule Castle. Travel in this direction to arrive at Kakariko Village.
• Once in Kakariko Village, Zelda will find a soldier speaking with some of the residents. From here head directly north out of the village and onto the Eldin Volcano Trail. After arriving, Zelda will get an overview of the area, beginning The Rift on Eldin Volcano quest.
• Zelda can travel west along the trail and she can defeat some Mini-Moldorm, learning the Mini-Moldorm Echo. Eventually she'll reach a cave which she can enter.
• Clear the Beetle and Beetle Mounds in the area and continue left a screen. Opeo the chest to get five Rocktatoes and then exit the cave.
• Climb to the left and you'll find an enemy camp with three Lizalfos. Clear the enemies, learn the Lizalfos Echo, and open the chest to get 3 Might Crystals.
• Save at the Waypoint and then continue climb up the mountain. To the right there are some air geysers pushing out hot steam which will cause damage to Zelda if she hits them. Use echoes and some patience to get by these geysers and continue to the right until you reach another cave.
• Inside the cave, defeat the Ghirro and learn the echo. Zelda can then use the echo and grab onto the enemy. While holding the enemy, she can walk over the geyser and it will float over the gap. Up ahead, Zelda can use the Ghirro to blow out some of the flames that are in the way, allowing her to grab onto the wall and reach the end of the cave.
• Outside, Zelda can climb the wall to make it up to Eldin Volcano. From there she can walk northeast to meet with a Goron. After speaking with him, head inside to enter Goron City.
