How to find it

The entrances are at map coordinates 1958, -3032 and 2009, -3164, near Rodai Lake. Look for the cave mouth at that spot; a Blupee or a ring of light often marks them.

Inside the cave

Glide into the cave

The cave has two entrances on the cliffs above Calora Lake, one at each end of the ridge. Glide down from the clifftop to either mouth (move any boulders blocking the entrance with Ultrahand), then walk into the red-rock tunnel. Past the entrance tunnel is a hole in the floor with a camp beside it, and the Black Hinox lives in the water far below.

Take the Bubbul Gem

A wall of boulders sits next to the hole with explosive barrels in front of it: shoot a Bomb Flower or an arrow at the barrels to blow the wall away, and the Bubbulfrog is on the wall in the room behind. Shoot it and pick up the Bubbul Gem it leaves.

Defeat the Eldest Hinox Brother

The Eldest Hinox Brother is the biggest of the three and fights in the central cavern; defeating it completes Ousting the Giants. Stay at range, shoot its eye, and use the explosive barrels around the camp, grabbed with Ultrahand, to knock it down. It leaves a pile of weapons such as a Royal Broadsword and a Mighty Zonaite Sword (Strong or Mighty, depending on your progress).

Loot the chest

A wooden chest floating in the water next to the Hinox holds Arrow x5.
