◈ Select a shrine to explore its location.

The entrance is on Koholit Rock on Eventide Island, in the southeastern Necluda Sea. It stays buried until you finish Stranded on Eventide. A mainland approach is to glide from Muwo Jeem Shrine toward the island; check the preparation note below before committing to the crossing. For broader route planning, see how to find shrines. For the island itself — the rules, enemies and supplies — see the Eventide Island guide.

Glide preparation reference	At least 2 full stamina wheels for the Muwo Jeem approach; landing position and flight path still matter

What should you bring?

The shrine interior is a straight blessing with no puzzle and no combat, so nothing is required inside — all preparation is for the crossing and the island trial. For the glide from Muwo Jeem Shrine, have at least two full stamina wheels, or carry stamina-replenishing food as the alternative to upgrades. Don’t stock up on weapons, armor, or supplies for the island itself: they are confiscated the moment you land, and only the Sheikah Slate remains, so Cryonis, Stasis, and Remote Bombs — plus whatever you scavenge — are your real kit.

Solution

The island is the puzzle. Fill the altars, then enter the blessing shrine. The route below uses Cryonis, Stasis, the paraglider, and a scavenged weapon for striking the altar slab. Remote Bombs help with weaker enemies and conserve weapon durability.

Objective	Orb location	Altar used in this route
Beach camp	Wooden platform in the eastern shore camp	Northern altar just offshore
Sleeping Hinox	Necklace of the giant below Koholit Rock	Southwestern hilltop camp
Koholit Rock camp	Platform in the southeastern hilltop camp	Nearby altar beneath a large slab
Completion target	3 orbs	3 filled altars

1. Eastern Beach Altar with Cryonis

Land and let the challenge begin. The monk speaks automatically; no NPC conversation is needed beforehand. Gather branches, food, and usable equipment around the island.

Take the eastern beach camp’s orb. Deal with or avoid the enemies, collect the orb from the wooden platform, and carry it north toward the offshore altar.

Lift the orb with Cryonis. Throw it into the water near the altar, make an ice pillar beneath it, climb up, then throw it onto the altar platform and place it in the socket.

Link below a wooden lookout platform in the beach camp with an orb on top — Take orb ① from the wooden platform in the eastern beach camp and carry it north.

Link standing on ice blocks in the sea beside the altar rock, holding the orb overhead — Throw the orb into the water, raise ice pillars under it, then climb up with orb ① toward the altar.

The orb set into the offshore altar, glowing blue — Throw the orb onto the altar platform and set it in the socket.

2. Hinox Orb to Southwestern Hilltop

Take the sleeping Hinox’s necklace orb. From nearby high ground, glide onto the giant below Koholit Rock and collect the orb. Defeating it is an alternative, not a requirement.

Carry that orb to the southwestern hilltop altar. Put it in the socket at the camp, completing this part of the route.

The Hinox lying asleep on the grass — The orb hangs on the necklace of sleeping Hinox ①; glide onto it from high ground and take it.

Link carrying the orb toward the southwestern hilltop altar — Carry orb ① to the altar in the southwestern hilltop camp.

Link on the altar as the orb glows blue in the socket — Put it in the socket to finish this altar.

3. Southeastern Camp Altar with Stasis

Go to the southeastern camp on Koholit Rock. Deal with the Moblin guarding the camp, take the platform’s orb, and set it beside the covered altar.

Use Stasis on the slab covering the altar. Strike the frozen slab to build up force and move it off the socket, then place the orb in the exposed altar.

Link on a wooden table in the southeastern camp beside an orb, with the slab-covered altar behind — In the southeastern camp, take orb ① and set it beside altar ②, which is covered by a slab.

The stone slab frozen in yellow Stasis while Link strikes it — Use Stasis on slab ① and strike it to build up force so it flies off the altar.

Link on the uncovered altar as the orb glows blue — Place the orb in the exposed altar.

4. Enter Shrine and Collect Reward

Wait for the shrine to appear and your gear to return. With all altars filled, head to the newly revealed entrance on top of Koholit Rock.

Open the chest before speaking to the monk. The interior is a straight reward path with no extra puzzle or Guardian fight; collect the chest, then finish at the monk’s pedestal.

The shrine standing in the grass after rising from the ground — With all three altars filled, the shrine appears and your gear returns.

Link opening a treasure chest on a raised platform inside the shrine — Open chest ① before speaking to the monk.

The monk seated behind a glowing blue barrier — Finish at the monk to receive the Spirit Orb.

Chests

Chest	Contents	How to get it
1	Gold Rupee, worth 300 rupees	After revealing the shrine, enter and open the chest on the straight path before the monk.

Outdoor supply chests belong to the island challenge and are separate from this shrine-interior checklist.

What do people miss here?

The crossing does not require upgraded stamina wheels: stamina-replenishing food is a direct substitute for the Muwo Jeem cliff glide, so don’t postpone Eventide until you’ve earned stamina upgrades.
The giant sleeping at the foot of Koholit Rock is specifically a Blue Hinox. If you’d rather fight it than take the orb from its necklace, remember you’ll only have whatever you’ve scavenged on the island.
Region bookkeeping: although the island sits in the southeastern Necluda Sea, this shrine is filed under the Faron tower region — if you’re ticking shrines off tower by tower, don’t hunt for it on a Necluda list.
The no-warp and reset rules only hold while the trial is active, and the trial ends the moment the third orb is socketed — your gear returns then, before you even step inside the shrine. Leaving after that point and coming back later for the chest and Spirit Orb costs you nothing.

FAQ

Why is Korgu Chideh Shrine not appearing?

Landing on Eventide Island starts the quest, but does not reveal the shrine. Place all the island orbs in the altars to make the entrance appear on Koholit Rock and recover your equipment.

Do I have to kill the Hinox on Eventide Island?

No, you can take the orb from its necklace without defeating it. Glide down from nearby high ground onto the sleeping Hinox, take the orb, and carry it to the hilltop altar.

How do I get the Eventide orb onto the altar in the sea?

Throw the orb into the water near the northern altar, then raise it on a Cryonis pillar. Climb up, throw the orb onto the altar platform, and place it in the socket.

Can I leave Eventide Island and get my gear back?

You cannot warp during the challenge, but swimming away lets you abandon it and recover your belongings. Returning means starting the island challenge again.
