Myahm Agana Shrine Location and Solution (BotW)

Where is Myahm Agana Shrine?

From Hateno Village, head toward the higher ground on its southern side, beside the newer houses. Use the Sheikah Slate at the entrance to enter. No shrine quest is needed. Find it in the full shrine checklist when planning your route.

What should you bring?

Nothing special is required: no particular weapon, armor, or resistance, and none of the runes — Magnesis, Stasis, Cryonis, or Remote Bombs — get used on the normal route; the trial is solved entirely through the apparatus’s motion controls. The only gear that matters is the paraglider, and even that is only needed for the optional chest route onto the maze platform. One practical note before you start: in handheld mode, tilting the whole console makes the screen harder to see, while in docked mode the Joy-Cons rely on internal motion sensors with no sensor bar, so precision and sync are lower either way.

Solution: how do you get the ball across?

The normal route uses motion controls, plus the paraglider for the chest. It needs no particular weapon, Magnesis, Stasis, Cryonis, or Remote Bombs.

1. Navigate the Tilted Maze

Climb the stairs and activate the controls on the right. Tilting your controller moves the suspended maze platform.

Guide the ball into the exit lane. Tilt the maze to roll it through the passages toward the open end facing the receiving track.

Flick the exit edge upward as the ball reaches it. Let the ball roll toward the gap, then reverse the tilt just before it drops. The upward motion sends it across to the track.

Wait for the ball to reach the socket. This opens the gate to the monk; merely getting the ball off the maze is not enough.

2. Reach the Chest on the Maze

Set up the chest route before leaving. Keep the maze face up and tilt it toward the receiving track. Exit the controls and follow the track to its end.

Run, jump, and paraglide onto the maze platform. Catch its edge, get onto the maze, and open the chest for the Phrenic Bow.

3. Meet the Monk

Glide back toward the socket from the opposite corner. Pass through the open gate and interact with the monk to receive the Spirit Orb.

Chests: what is inside and how do you reach it?

What do people miss here?

• Motion drift is fixable: if the platform tilts the wrong way no matter how you hold the controller, step away from the controls and press A to activate the apparatus again — this resets the sync.
• The ball is heavy. Once it picks up a lot of momentum it is nearly impossible to steer in a different direction, so keep your tilts gentle and favor slow, steady progress over speed.
• Think the maze is mandatory? The apparatus can be skipped entirely: precise Remote Bomb use combined with shield surfing can get you into the monk’s chamber through its open ceiling.
• Claimed the Spirit Orb and left before opening the chest? The shrine also serves as Hateno Village’s fast travel point, so you can warp back at any time to grab what you missed.
