The Snow Realm is the second land you open after the Tower of Spirits, and its temple is hidden behind a blizzard you cannot cross until three people have helped you. You pair up the Anouki villagers so that Honcho shows you the tunnel to the Snow Sanctuary, you shoot the Rocktite that guards it, you play a duet with the Lokomo Steem to lay the rails toward the temple, and finally you find Ferrus, who draws the one safe path through the storm.

How to get to the Snow Realm
Train route from the Tower of Spirits
With the Snow Rail Map in your collection, Anjean sends you to the Snow Sanctuary, but the cannon you need on the way is not on the train yet. Drive to Hyrule Castle Town first, collect Alfonzo from the castle, and take him home to Aboda Village; the Cannon and the Stamp Book are handed out there, and they come before everything in this chapter. If you still need them, the previous chapter on floors 4 to 7 of the Tower of Spirits covers that detour.
Dark Trains and track enemies
Since the Forest Temple, some ordinary trains on the map are possessed. A Dark Train is dangerous to ram, so check the line it is following on the map before every long run and time your crossing to stay out of its way. Smaller enemies also appear on the rails; clear them and any boulders in your way with the cannon. One big boulder at the edge of the forest needs three cannonballs, so keep firing until it breaks.
Rabbitland Rescue and the Rabbit Net
On the way you pass the small Rabbitland Rescue station. If you have not done so yet, walk northeast to Bunnio, say you want to frolic, and he gives you the Rabbit Net. From here on, every rabbit you catch is a collectible: any five rabbits of any kind earn a Heart Container from Bunnio, and ten earn a random treasure. The full list is on the rabbit locations page.
How to catch a rabbit from the train
While you drive, watch the boulders beside the rails for a pair of ears. Blow the whistle and the rabbit hops, which confirms that it is there. Blast the boulder with the cannon, then chase the rabbit down with the net on the touch screen before the ten-second timer runs out. Rabbits begin to appear as soon as the snow starts, so you can try for them before you even reach the village.
Anouki Village
Song of Discovery and the Red Potion
Park at the village station and follow the path toward the village. Along the way you pass a stone with a rocket-shaped top, a sound stone. Stand in front of it and play the tune it teaches, and you learn the Song of Discovery, which reveals hidden objects when you play it elsewhere. A chest that rises out of the ground where the stone stood holds a Red Potion, which goes into the menu bar and restores six hearts once.
Anouki Village stamp station
The stamp station is in the east of the village, tucked behind a group of pine trees. Walk east through the village, go north around the trees and tap the station to stamp Niko’s book.
Honcho’s pairing quest
Honcho is busy forming a village watch and offers information on the Snow Sanctuary only if you pair up the six Anouki: himself and five villagers. Talk to everyone in the village; each one tells you who they will not work with, and Honcho works with anybody. Yeko dislikes Noko. The solution is this: Honcho goes with Yefu, Yeko goes with Bulu, and Noko goes with Kofu.
The villagers’ clues point to the same result. Yefu avoids partners with flashy horns, Noko refuses the villager in yellow, Bulu will not work with anyone who has facial hair, and Kofu avoids partners with big horns. Go back to Honcho and draw a line on the village map between each pair of faces. He rewards you with a red Rupee worth 20 Rupees and tells you that the tunnel to the Snow Sanctuary is still open, although a huge monster lives in it.
The tunnel to the Snow Sanctuary
Rocktite mini-boss fight
Honcho shows you the tunnel entrance on the map. Set your route there and drive in. A moment later the Rocktite drops from the ceiling behind you and gives chase, with a large yellow eye at its centre. Keep driving and fire the cannon at that eye; each hit knocks the creature back and buys you a few seconds. It climbs the walls and then the ceiling as the tunnel goes on, getting faster, and it hurts the train if it catches you, so keep your thumb on the gearbox and shoot steadily. After enough hits it collapses and the way to the Snow Sanctuary is free.
Snow Sanctuary
Anouki General Store and its Heart Container
The Anouki General Store, run by Akin, is a small hut east of the spot where you fight the White Wolfos. It sells a Heart Container for 2,000 Rupees, one time only. After you buy it, the shelf is refilled with a single random treasure that costs 300 Rupees and is replaced the next day. The store also sells a Shield for 150 Rupees, a Red Potion for 100, a Purple Potion for 150 and packs of ten Prize Postcards for 100.
Snow Sanctuary stamp station
Leave the store and head northwest through the snow. The stamp station stands along this path, and you need no special item for it. The stamp design shows three White Wolfos, and packs of them attack on this stretch, so fight them one at a time and keep your shield up.
Statue room without being seen
Continue north and east and then west until you come to the door of the sanctuary. Inside, a stone tablet explains that you must reach the far door without being seen by the statues. A statue sees whatever it faces, and several of them look along diagonal lines, so a straight path across the room gets you caught and the door shuts. Open your map, draw a route that stays out of every line of sight, step on the floor switch beside the tablet, and then follow your line to the door at the top of the room.
Steem and the Snow Realm duet
On the other side you find Steem, the Lokomo who watches over the Snow Realm. He teaches you your half of a song, and you can practice it as many times as you like. When you perform it, play your notes on the Spirit Flute at the right moments while Steem plays his, and do not let his melody lead you off your part. The shrine door opens and the tracks to the Snow Temple are restored.
Wellspring Station and the blizzard
Why you cannot drive straight to the temple
Zelda suggests heading straight for the temple, but the northern tracks run into a storm that behaves like the Lost Woods: if you turn the wrong way you are sent back to the start. Return to Anouki Village and talk to Honcho. He sends you east to a young man named Ferrus, who knows about trains and keeps a map of the safe course through the storm.
How to find Ferrus
Drive east along the new rails to the far east of the Snow Realm and stop just before the junction where a bomb train roams. A station that was not on your map, Wellspring Station, sits there. Check the bomb train’s route on the map before you move on. Step inside Ferrus’s trailer-like house, on the east side of the station, and look at the map on his table: three places are circled. Copy those circles onto your own map.
Ferrus is out photographing the trains at one of the three marked spots, so drive to them while avoiding the bomb train. Stop right next to him and talk. When he asks where you are headed, say the temple, and he shows you the safe course through the blizzard on a map.
The blizzard route
Once the path is visible, copy it onto your own map and follow it exactly. The snow is blinding and enemies are hard to spot, so shoot anything that appears and do not drift from the line. If you stay on it you come out at the Snow Temple; if you forget the route, you can stop by Ferrus again and look at his map whenever you like.
What Wellspring Station offers later
You cannot reach everything at the station yet. The stamp station lies north of Ferrus’s house, beyond water you can only freeze with the Boomerang, so return with it after the Snow Temple. Later, an Anouki called Noko asks you to bring him here, which earns a Force Gem and lets you buy Mega Ice, the cargo that cools the lava in the Fire Realm.
Snow rabbits and what you leave for later
Snow rabbits you can net now
Ten Snow Rabbits live in this realm, and seven of them are on the base map. They sit beside the tracks around Anouki Village and Wellspring Station. The last three need Force Gems from later quests, so skip them for now. Carry five rabbits of any breed to Bunnio for the Heart Container.
Quests that begin in this chapter’s area
Several Force Gem quests start in the Snow Realm but cannot be completed yet: a Goron who wants to see snow, Noko’s trip to Wellspring Station and Steem’s wish for a Vessel. Keep them in mind; the Force Gems page lists each one with its reward.
