Great Plateau Foothill Cave

Great Plateau Foothill Cave is a cave in Central Hyrule, about 128 map units from South Hyrule Sky Archipelago. The entrance is blocked by boulders, the cavern holds a Bubbulfrog that drops a Bubbul Gem for The Hunt for Bubbul Gems!, and the cave ends at Kyokugon Shrine.

How to find it

The entrance is at map coordinates -832, -1488, at the foot of the Great Plateau cliffs on the south side of Hyrule Field, north of Kyokugon Shrine. A wall of loose boulders covers the cave mouth, and fire flowers grow around it.

Inside the cave

Break through the rubble

Smash the rock wall in the cave mouth with a Rock Hammer, a bomb or a bomb flower. Horriblins live behind it, so be ready to fight as soon as the dust settles.

Fight through the cavern

Follow the passage down into the main cavern. Horriblins roam the floor, and Luminous Stones and Opals lie in the rock walls if you want to mine them. Giant Brightbloom Seeds grow along the path and light the darker corners.

Take down the Bubbulfrog

The Bubbulfrog is in a small chamber on the southern side, hidden behind a wall of blue sediment. Blue sediment will not break to bombs, so smash it with a hammer or other rock-based weapon, or use Yunobo’s Power of Fire. Knock the Bubbulfrog down and pick up the Bubbul Gem it drops.

Walk on to Kyokugon Shrine

At the back of the cave a wall of black sediment hides Kyokugon Shrine; break it with a bomb or heavy weapon. From inside the cave you can also use Ascend to rise onto the Great Plateau. The shrine is a puzzle shrine called Alignment of the Circles. Step up to the glowing shrine entrance to go in.
