The Hyrule Castle Walkthrough is a full guide for both getting to and completing Hyrule Castle, the dungeon featured in Echoes of Wisdom. This includes navigating the dungeon, opening all chests, and taking on the dungeon boss, Ganon.

Entering Hyrule Castle

  • After completing both the Jabul Ruins and Gerudo Sanctum, return to Lueburry's House. Shortly after arriving, General Wright will storm out, with Minister Lefte following behind as they head back to Hyrule Castle.
  • Zelda can then head north from Lueburry's House towards Hyrule Castle. Once she gets near Hyrule Castle Town, she will find General Wright, Minister Lefte, and a number of Guards.
  • The Rift surrounding Castle Town will expand, swallowing up some residents and causing monsters to appear.
  • Inside Castle Town, head to the left and jump down to get into the Bottom of the Well.
  • Inside the Well, Zelda can create a portal to reach the Still World. After exiting the building, Zelda will find herself within the Stilled Hyrule Castle Town.
  • Zelda can make her way through the Still World, which is littered with dark enemies. Towards the northwest part of the area, Zelda will reach a Waypoint. She can pull up a treasure chest here to get 7 portions of Radiant Butter.
  • Further to the left, Zelda can climb up and use a Flying Tile Echo to reach a chest further to the left, that contains 20 rupees.
  • Zelda will then need to navigate to the north end of the Still World, swimming up ponds of water to eventually reach Hyrule Castle.

Hyrule Castle Stealth

  • Once inside Hyrule Castle, head up and fight the Darknut Lv. 2. Continue up to the Throne Room to find the stilled King of Hyrule. Move the throne to find a ladder and head down.
  • After traveling through the underground area, use Bind to pull the wall to find yourself in an area filled with guards.
  • In this stealth area, Zelda will need to sneak by the first set of guards without being noticed.
  • Once Zelda reaches the Wooden Boxes, she'll need to move them, along with the Decorative Shrubs, using bind. Avoid being seen by the guard and climb the ladder where the Shrub was.
  • In the last area, Zelda can use Echoes to climb on top of the shelves and then use a Hyrule Castle Pot Echo to distract the last guard. Leap off the shelf and head right a screen.

Dungeon Map

  • Use Echoes to climb to the right to find a stilled Impa. Continue to the right and head down the ladder where you'll need to fight a series of Darknuts.
  • In the next area, defeat the enemies and open the three chests to get 2 Twisted Pumpkins, 5 jars of Floral Nectar, and a Monster Stone.
  • After resurfacing, you'll be in a room with a number of unlit torches. Use an Ignizol Echo and charge it up by holding the button down. Use it to light the torch that is beyong the gate.
  • At the bottom-right, use an Ignizol Echo to spawn an Ignizol in the corner. Then use Bind to grab it and carry it over to the torch at the top-right.
  • Light the remaining two torches and head up a screen.
  • Use Bind and drop the first two enemies into the abyss. Zelda can then jump and use the wind from the next enemy to reach the higher ledge. Alternatively, she can toss this one into the abyss and just use echoes to climb up.
  • Walk to the right a screen and use a Wind Cannon to clear the sand. Open the chest that is hidden to find the Dungeon Map.


  • After getting the Dungeon Map, head back left a screen and use Echoes to reach the far north end of the room. Continue onward to the next screen.
