Heart Piece Locations

Where: In the tide pools along Suthorn Beach, on top of a flat stone pillar beside the rocks, with Sea Urchins in the water around it.
How: Swim through the pools past the Sea Urchins, then set Old Bed echoes between the pillars as bridges and walk across to the piece.

Where: In the side-view cave off Suthorn Beach (where you learn the Keese echo), on a low ledge at the bottom right. How: Crates are stacked at the foot of a studded climbing wall. From the ledge above, drop Rock echoes onto them to smash them, then climb down the wall and walk right to the piece.

Where: On the left counter of the Suthorn Village Shop.
How: Buy it for 80 rupees. The shopkeeper only has one in stock.

Where: In the side-view red-rock cave in Suthorn Forest (Caromadillos inside), on a grassy ledge right of the first ladder.
How: You can see it from the ladder but can’t reach it. Burn the grass with an Ignizol, keep going right, climb the studded walls and loop back onto the ledge from the right. With the three earlier pieces, this one completes a heart.

Where: On a carved stone pillar among the small ponds in Suthorn Prairie, near Lueburry’s house.
How: Use an Old Bed and a Trampoline to get onto a shorter pillar next to it. Then lay Old Beds across the pond to the heart pillar and climb on.

Where: Under a small square hatch in the rocky ground past the domed pools at Gerudo Town’s east edge.
How: Drop through the hatch into a side-view passage. Bind the one-eyed moving platforms and ride them over the gaps, then Bind the stacked boulders and pull them aside. The piece is at the end of the passage.

Where: In the Gerudo Desert sandstorm past the Boarblin camp with the log towers. It sits on a raised sandstone block below and in front of a higher sandstone ledge.
How: Climb onto the high ledge, place an Old Bed sticking out over its edge, walk to the end of the bed and drop onto the block with the piece.

Where: Buried under one of the sand mounds in the dunes just outside Gerudo Town, toward the big rift. Aruroda roam the area.
How: Place Wind Cannon echoes to blow the mounds away until the piece appears, then pick it up. It completes a heart.

Where: Tough Mango Plant Lab at the Oasis.
How: Play Mango Rush with the Ultimate seeds (10 rupees) and collect all 70 mangoes. The researcher gives you the piece as a bonus. (Needs: a previous Ultimate-seed clear; the first one earns the Dancing Outfit.)

Where: In the Gerudo Desert sandstorm, during the Wild Sandstorms side quest from Gerudo Palace.
How: Wait for the Lanmola to burst out of the sand and attack it with strong melee echoes. A Darknut is used here, with Zelda holding the Lanmola in place with Bind. When it dies it drops the piece in a ring of rupees.

Where: a cave off a stone ledge above the water in Zora Cove. Past a grassy room and a short flooded side-view passage is a room with four braziers and a barred door.
How: put out every brazier by summoning a Hydrozol beside each one so it splashes the flame out. With all four dark, the barred door opens on a small alcove holding the piece. (Needs: Hydrozol echo.)

Where: the pool at the top of a waterfall on Zora River’s terraces near the rift; a faint heart-shaped glint shows on its floor.
How: set an Old Bed in the water at the foot of the falls and climb it onto the ledge, then swim to the glint and dive to come up with the piece.

Where: the seabed of Zora Cove, just east of the C-shaped island over Sea Zora Village, beside the small round islet with a waypoint stone on top. The piece lies under a cracked boulder among the seaweed and rocks.
How: swim out from Seesyde Village and dive by the waypoint islet. Summon a Bombfish next to the cracked rock: the blast breaks it and leaves the piece in the hole underneath, so dive onto it. Electric jellyfish drift nearby, so keep clear of them. (Needs: Bombfish echo.)

Where: the wrecked ship in the southwest of Zora Cove, ringed by rock spires.
How: board it and work down through the cargo hold to the electrified room at the bottom. The giant electric jellyfish there charges the purple floor, so fight from the wooden ledge and let echoes wear it down. When it falls it drops the piece among a pile of rupees.

Where: on top of a stone pillar standing in the pool right beside Lord Jabu-Jabu’s Den on Zora River.
How: the pillar is too tall to climb from the water, so summon Cloud echoes next to it and hop up them onto the top. (Needs: Cloud echo, from Stilled Hebra Mountain; easiest to grab on a late-game cleanup pass.)

Where: A pond in Hyrule Field ringed by stone pillars, with Octoroks spitting rocks from the shorter pillars; the piece sits on top of the tallest one.
How: Swim out and summon a Water Block right against the tallest pillar, then swim up through the block and step onto the top. (Needs: Water Block.)

Where: The acorn-gathering man on a hedge-lined trail through the wooded hills of Hyrule Field.
How: Pay 10 rupees and pick up all 11 acorns before the 40-second goal. Zelda finished in 16.31 seconds; he called it “lightning fast” and added a special one-time bonus, the Piece of Heart, on top of the 20-rupee prize.

Where: A patch of crumbling stone ruins beside a purple rift in Hyrule Field, west of the castle; the piece is on top of a tall carved pillar.
How: Summon one Water Block against the side of the pillar, swim up it and step across onto the top. (Needs: Water Block.)

Where: A grass strip between Castle Town’s outer wall and the moat.
How: From the grass at the foot of the wall, summon a Water Block and swim up it onto the wall walk. Follow the wall around the corner tower to where the piece sits on the grass below, then drop down to grab it. Another Water Block gets you back onto the wall. (Needs: Water Block.)

Where: A walled sandy pit on the upper level of the western Hyrule Field canyons.
How: Stack Water Blocks to climb the grassy ledges to the upper level, where a huge boulder plugs the gap in the pit’s wall. Bind the boulder and drag it out of the gap, then walk into the pit and pick up the piece. (Needs: Water Block, Bind.)

Where: A side-view cave right next to the sandy pit; the piece rests on a ledge on the left, cut off by a row of boulders.
How: Don’t bother moving the boulders. Go back outside, climb onto the grassy top of the cave with a Water Block and summon a Holmill there. It digs a hole that drops Zelda straight onto the heart ledge. (Needs: Holmill.)

Where: A grassy ledge just outside Kakariko Village, at the foot of the dense forest.
How: Leave Kakariko into Hyrule Field and follow the path up onto the ledge below the trees. Summon a Holmill on the bare dirt patch there; it digs a hole down into a small side-view underground room where the piece is waiting. (Needs: Holmill.)

Where: The last room of the Eastern Temple in Eastern Hyrule Field, during the side quest Let’s Play a Game.
How: Hit Smog to break him up, then track down the puffy pieces hiding among the boulders, using Bind to drag rocks out of the way. Once the last piece is hit he retreats, leaving rupees, hearts and the Piece of Heart on the floor next to the exit portal.

Where: Hyrule Ranch: talk to the ranch girl while on horseback.
How: Pay 10 rupees for the middle course, which runs outside the ranch in Hyrule Field: grab the 5 flags in order and reach the goal. Beating 25 seconds earns the Prismatic Music Box; beating 20 seconds makes you a course master, and the prize for that is the Piece of Heart. Zelda’s 19.86 got both in one run.

Where: The Zol-loving boy outside his house in Hyrule Castle Town.
How: After Dampé builds the Gizmol in Performance Artist!, talk to the boy to start An Out-There Zol, then summon the Gizmol next to him. He’s amazed it isn’t in his encyclopedia and pays you back with his treasure, the Piece of Heart. (Needs: the Gizmol automaton.)

Where: The Slumber Dojo in Kakariko Village.
How: Sign up as a student and pass two dream trainings (Zelda beat the goal times in Blank-Slate Battle and then Caromadillos’ Revenge). After the second, the dojo master says you’ve advanced a level and hands over the “ASTOUNDING” reward he promised, a Piece of Heart.

Where: The Slumber Dojo in Kakariko Village.
How: Keep passing trainings. The master gives a milestone reward every couple of passes and always tells you how many more you need. Zelda’s eleventh pass, Blank-Slate Battle: Final (2:00 goal, cleared in 1:23.63), earned the second Piece of Heart.

Where: A low tree stump in the middle of a ring of woodland in Hyrule Field, with a Deku Baba growing right beside it.
How: Zelda left the Slumber Dojo by warping to a Hyrule Field waypoint just south of the woods, then walked north through the trees. Watch out for the Deku Baba, step up onto the stump and take the piece.

Where: Eldin Volcano Trail, just past the green pool you come out at after closing the trail’s first rift.
How: Follow the path east along the cliff until a Torch Slug’s fire trail runs along the wall; the piece sits on a small ledge on the cliff face just below the path. Drop off the edge onto the ledge to grab it.

Where: The lava flats past Rock-Roast Quarry, on top of a tall stone block at the edge of the rift.
How: Walk up beside the block, place a Water Block echo against it, swim up through the water and step off onto the top to collect the piece.

Where: The northern lava lake above Goron City, the lake that holds the Lizalfos Burrow entrance; the piece sits on a small stone platform out in the lava, just off the rock path that runs along the lake’s east edge.
How: Follow the path north from Goron City past the Tweelus until the platform comes into view on your left, then summon a Crow echo and hold on to it with Bind’s reverse mode so it tows you across the lava; let go over the platform.

Where: The flame giant’s chamber at the back of the Summit Cave, high on Eldin Volcano.
How: Talk to the Goron Darston in the Summit Cave to start A Mountainous Mystery, work through the lava cave, then beat the flame giant: throw Water Blocks to douse its flames, then attack the exposed core. The piece appears in a ring of rupees when it falls. (Needs: the Water Block echo; the quest itself also earns the Goron’s Bracelet from Darston.)

Where: The frozen lake low on Hebra Mountain, below the Waypoint; the piece sits on a tall ice pedestal ringed with ice spikes near the lake’s snowy, tree-lined shore.
How: Hop across the ice floes (Ice Octos spit at you from the water), then place a Water Block against the pedestal, swim up through it and step across onto the top.

Where: The snowy cliff top beside the rift above the frozen lake, on the way to the Ice Spikes pool.
How: Stack Old Bed echoes against the cliff face along the rift’s edge and climb them to the top; the piece sits on the snow a few steps in. A shadowy blob enemy drifts around up there.

Where: The snowy terraces below Hebra’s summit, just past the cliff path where you learn the Moa echo; the piece sits on a round snow pillar standing apart from the terraces.
How: Climb the terraces between the rolling giant snowballs (crows dive at you all the way), and from the ledge beside the pillar summon a Crow echo and hold on to it with Bind’s reverse mode so it carries you across the gap; let go over the pillar.

Where: Condé’s House on Hebra Mountain; the reward is handed over at the round pedestal between the ice crystals nearby.
How: Talk to Condé to start Snowball Magic, then Bind one of the glittering giant snowballs and carry it to the pedestal without breaking it, placing Cloud echoes to bridge the gaps. Condé cheers that the magic worked and gives you the piece. (Needs: the Cloud echo; this one waits until late game.)

Where: a side-view underwater cave reached by diving into the small diamond-shaped pond north of Heart Lake. The piece sits on a high ledge at the far end, beside a patrolling Armos.
How: swim through past the Lizalfos and Armos (a Chompfin echo helps). At the end, stack Cloud echoes on the water’s surface and climb them to the ledge, then deal with the Armos and take the piece. It completes a heart.

Where: a pitch-dark cave reached through a corridor of glowing blue mushrooms past the shallow marsh. Early on, the piece glows on an isolated ledge across a black gap.
How: light the braziers as you go so you can see the walkways. At the gap, summon a Cloud echo and ride it across to the ledge. (Needs: Cloud echo.)

Where: a small room in the Deku Scrub Lockup, on top of a block of stacked Deku totems, right on the Bind-only escape route.
How: use Bind to drag the bed, table, torch stands and potted shrubs over beside the totems and pile them into rough steps. Climb up and walk across the totem tops to the piece.

Where: the Hidden Ruins south of Scrubton, the ones with the rain-making frogs.
How: take the Cotton-Candy Hunt from the Deku Scrub in Scrubton and work through the ruins to Smog’s side-view room. He breaks into cloud pieces: grab them with Bind and hit them with your echoes until he admits he’s beaten and leaves the piece behind.
