Quick Links
Even though The Depth is all about exploring the Hyrule underground, the surface area ofThe Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdomhas plenty of underground space of its own. These places are mainly accessible via caves and wells that are scattered around. Some can be small, while others can be huge and complex enough to hide an entire Shrine.

If you’re hoping to get to the Iun-orok Shrine, you’d best be ready to deal with a variety of monsters. Also, it’ll be quite the mining expedition, so be ready to do a lot of rock-breaking on your way to the entrance.
Reaching Iun-orok Shrine
Map Coordinates: -3538, 0850, -0133
Before you do anything, make sure you have plenty of Rock Hammers andBomb Flowers. Then,head to the part of Tanagar Canyon slightly north of theTabantha Great Bridge. There will be a cave (Tanagar Canyon West Cave) on the west side for you to enter. There is ablupee near the entrance.
After entering the cave, jump down the hole. You’ll fight two Stone Pebblits anda giant breakable rock wall on the side of the chamber. Cut a Link-sized hole through the rocks and into the next area.
Turn right and follow the tunnel until you see a small area with an Ice Like Like on the ceiling. There will be another rock wall past it. Run past it and use a Rock Hammer or Bomb Arrows to quickly break through the wall.
To save time,evade the creature’s frost breath, then hit its exposed bulbous weak point to stun itfor a few seconds.
The next area will havea tunnel leading towards another brown rock wall on the far wall across from an Electric Like Like. Stand to one side to lure its fire,then move out of the way and hit its weak point to stun it. After that, run over to the rock wall and focus on breaking its right side. This will open a way to the Shrine.
If you continue forward through more rock wall, instead of going to the right, you’ll encounter aBubbulfrog.
Solving Iun-orok Shrine
You’ll have a ball in this Shrine… Literally, and more than one. The concept of this chamber is toroll large metal balls into targets at the end of progressively odd-shaped ramps. And no, you may’t just carry the balls and bump them into the targets.
First Puzzle
The first ramp is straightforward enough:Pick up the ball with Move, line it up with the target, drop it on the ramp, and watch it roll.This will unlock the way forward to the second ramp.
Second Puzzle
You’ll have two balls and a ramp shaped like a long triangle this time.Attach the balls side by sideand place them so that each ball is on either side of the point. They’ll roll down together and hit the target, opening the way forward.
Third Puzzle And Shrine Chest
The final chamber is a bit tougher, and there’s a chest here too. To get to the chest, put the big ball against the elevated platform the chest is on and then attach the medium ball to the top.Bring over the small ball and use it to climbonto the big ball. Then, Move the small ball next to the medium ball and attach them. Use the small ball to get up to the medium ball and get to the chest, which has some arrows in it.
Back to the ramp, you’ll see that it curves in a weird way and doesn’t even end at the target. To solve this, attach all three balls in a horizontal line. Bring them to the ramp and position them horizontally with the large ball on the left side.Turn them slightly askew to the left, drop them, and they should roll along the rampand into the target. This will unlock the final path at the end of the ramp, where you can collect your prize.
