Zelda Tears of the Kingdom Runakit Shrine Location

The Runakit Shrine in Tears of the Kingdom is located just west of Lindor’s Brow Skyview Tower in Hyrule Ridgenorth of Mount Roham and northwest of Ludfo’s Bog.

Here is a picture of the Runakit Shrine map location:

Tears of the Kingdom has finally arrived and our Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom walkthrough will guide you in your quest. Your adventure begins on the Great Sky Island where you will need to complete Ukouh Shrine, Gutanbac Shrine, In-Isa Shrine, and Nachoyah Shrine for Link’s new abilities. This will allow you to complete the main quest To Hyrule Kingdom, find Captain Hoz, and get the Paraglider. On your journey, you’ll want to complete Jiosin Shrine, Susuyai Shrine, Isodag Shrine, Kiuyoyou Shrine, Oromuwak Shrine, and Sinakawak Shrine. We also have guides on how to access the sky, how to get the Archaic Tunic, how to beat the Flux Construct I, Amiibo unlocks, and how to tame horses.

Runakit Shrine puzzle solution in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom

There are three Built to Carry puzzles you need to solve at Runakit Shrine to reach the end and get the Blessing Light, and an optional puzzle to reach a chest. Here’s how to solve the four Runakit puzzles:

Runakit Sanctuary 1 puzzle solution

To start the Runakit Shrine puzzles, jump and slide down the ladders, then climb a ladder to the top or use Ascend on one of the low ceilings.

At the top you’ll find the big ball that Link needs to return to the start with, and for this first puzzle solution you just need to use Ultrahand to pick up the ball and place it on the metal rails.

Runakit Sanctuary 2 puzzle solution

Once the ball has rolled to the next platform, jump and slide over it. Although the puzzle area looks like the first one, you can’t just put the ball on the following tracks, as they are too wide to contain it.

Instead, to solve the second Runakit Shrine puzzle, you must use Ultrahand to glue four pieces of wood together, then glue the ball in the middle of your creation.

First, glue two pieces of wood together to make a longer piece, then do the same with the other two pieces in the area. Then glue these two long pieces side by side.

Then, stick the ball in the middle of this creation, then place the whole thing in the middle of the following tracks and watch your creation fly to the next area.

Don’t worry if you mess up here because the ball and wood will come back if they fall.

How to Get the Chest in Runakit Shrine

After sliding to the next area, you might want to get the Runakit Shrine bonus chest before continuing with the final puzzle. To access the chest, you must first use Ultrahand to stick two “L” tiles together, creating a platform. Next, move this platform so that it rests on the two rails under the chest.

Then you can use Ultrahand to glue more stone slabs onto this platform, creating a path for Link to walk on. Or, you can stick the slabs together and make a ramp, then jump off that ramp to reach the platform you placed under the ladder. We went with the second option, but the first is probably safer.

All you need to do now is climb the ladder and open the chest to get a construction bow, which has five attack powers.

Runakit Sanctuary 3 puzzle solution

The solution to this final Runakit Shrine puzzle is to create a creation that Link can stick the ball on, then place your creation on the single track to return the ball to the starting area.

The first step is to use Ultrahand to glue two of the ‘L’ shaped stone slabs together (or use the one you built to get the chest), then glue the ball on top of that platform.

Then you can either use the group of wooden pieces brought back from the last puzzle to stick to the bottom of your creation, or use another stone slab. The goal here is to leave a little space at the bottomso you can put it on the single rail.

Ignore the wings, we were experimenting unsuccessfully.

For this reason, we believe that wood is the best choice, as it only leaves a very small gap, making it harder for your creation to fall while sliding down the rail.
