Zelda TOTK: Karahatag Shrine Solution & Location

The Karahatag Shrine's puzzle, Drifting Flame, has a simple solution and an easy chest with a Mighty Construct Bow as a reward waiting for you in TOTK.

Near this Shrine, an ongoing sandstorm affects your map and greatly limits visibility. Unluckily, this storm won't stop until you complete the Regional Phenomena (temple) quest in this area.

But do not worry about the weather! In this guide, we will tell you how to get to the Karahatag Shrine in TOTK, even through the worst climate, and how to solve its Drifting Flame puzzle!

To solve the Drifting Flame puzzle in the Karahatag Shrine in TOTK, you have to unlock the first gate by lighting up the ceiling stone pillar on the left side of the room.

Once you enter the main area of the Shrine, you must ignite three stone pillars with the aid of a small portable pillar that holds a flame. You can use Recall and the button on the floor to achieve this.

Get the Chest in the Karahatag Shrine

The Karahatag Shrine in TOTK is located in the Southern Oasis of the Gerudo Desert in the southwestern area of Hyrule. The exact coordinates to this location are -3726, -3625, 0043.

In addition, the Gerudo Canyon is the nearest Skyview Tower to this Shrine. Before going to this location, take enough Cold and Heat Resistance food or adequate equipment with you.

At night the desert gets chilly, and during the day, the heat is unbearable for Link!

Getting here can be complicated due to a sandstorm that affects visibility and your map. Nonetheless, the harsh climate ceases once you have completed this area's Regional Phenomena (temple) main quest.

You can still get to this location despite the sandstorm. However, you will depend entirely on the coordinates displayed in the screen's lower right corner.

If you plan to go while the sandstorm is still active, mark the location on your map. Then, try to glide or walk in a straight line toward that point.

Once the map fails and you have no visuals, focus on the coordinates to get to the exact Karahatag Shrine's location in TOTK.
