Gerudo Highlands Skyview Tower location in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom
The Gerudo Highlands Skyview Tower can be quite difficult to locate, but it is on one of the southern ridges of the highlands at coordinates -3959, -1313, 0422 in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Be sure to bring cold-resistant clothing and meals, as this area of Hyrule is quite cold.
Whichever route you take to get to this tower, you should be prepared for some rock climbing. You can, however, remove some of this climbing if you have already unlocked the Gerudo Canyon Skyview tower, as using this tower and sliding north will help you avoid some cliffs.
How to unlock the Gerudo Highlands Skyview tower in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom
When you get to the Gerudo Highlands Skyview Tower, you’ll find that the entrance has been covered in snow, and since Link doesn’t have a shovel, you need to find another way to get there.
This journey begins with the entrance to Meadela’s Mantle Cave which is directly north of Skyview Tower.
Once inside the cave, follow the pathway until you reach a river and a set of building materials. Here you have to create a raft and, once on it, follow the course of the river until after descending a waterfall, you find yourself at the foot of the tower.
Before accessing the tower, however, it is worth exploring this area, as at the end of a crawl space you will find a chest containing a Topaz.
Once you’ve opened the chest, you need to find a set of wooden panels in the ceiling of the cave, which is actually the floor of the Skyview Tower. These signs sit above the water, so you need to use your raft or stand on top of the wooden pillars to make sure you’re under the signs.
When you are, use Ascend to reach the base of the tower where you can activate the terminal!
