Ninjis Shrine Location and Solution (TotK)
How to unlock Ninjis Shrine in Korok Forest: the Maca's Special Place shrine quest, the Thyphlo Ruins launch and the dive through the fog.
Before you start
Korok Forest is sealed by fog from the surface. You enter it from below — through the Depths, then Ascend up the roots of the Great Deku Tree — and the Koroks only talk to you after you have cured the Deku Tree. Both are part of the main path through the forest, so most players arrive here with them done. The location matches our 152-shrine table.

Maca’s Special Place quest
- Talk to Maca, the Korok on the south side of Korok Forest. He wants to show you his special place but the fog means you cannot walk there, so he pins it on your map.
- Travel to Thyphlo Ruins Skyview Tower and launch.
- Glide toward the pin. If your stamina runs low, land on one of the floating islands along the way and continue from there.
- Dive onto the pin. As you drop you will see a green swirl around the shrine entrance below.
- Land, activate the shrine and walk in — the quest completes on entry.

Step-by-step solution
1. Falling into the Shrine
Ninjis Shrine is the one Korok Forest shrine you reach by falling into it: the fog blocks every path on the ground, so the quest sends you up a tower and back down through the canopy.
2. Claiming the Rewards
The chest straight ahead holds a Mighty Construct Bow; the altar gives the Light of Blessing.
