There are quite a few Skyview Towers in Tears of the Kingdom, they work as fast travel points, map fillers, and a great way to get some height when roaming around Hyrule. However, opening and unlocking each one won’t always be a walk in the park. Here’s how to solve the Sahasra Slope Tower in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
How to Solve the Sahasra Slope Tower in Tears of the Kingdom
First off, when you come across the tower, it will look like nothing’s wrong. Talk to the Rito NPC next to it to learn that the door simply will not open because the shrine’s power terminal is on the fritz. He will tell you about a cave system running underneath the tower.
We recommend bringing weapons fused with rocks, because you’ll need to break a ton of pink rocks to clear through the cavern tunnels. Break through the first set of pink rocks with your rock weapon, and then you’ll come to a split in the path. Go forward to find some enemies and a chest, or go right until you come across another fork in the path. This is the direction you’ll need to go to open the tower.
When you come across another fork, which can be tricky to spot, you’ll want to take the new opening on the right hand side. You’ll enter a small room, with a movable grey rock on the other side. In this small room, you can use the Ascend ability to ascend directly into the Sahasra Tower. The coordinates for this room at (1340, -1177, 0166)
