The '''Spool Swamp Shortcut'''{{Ref|name=sign|OoS|859|Sign}} is a location found within ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons|Oracle of Seasons]]''. It is located in southern [[Holodrum]] in the [[Holodrum Plain|plains of the land]], just south of [[Mrs. Ruul's Villa]]. Like the initial entrance to the [[Spool Swamp|swamp]] north of the shortcut, the Spool Swamp Shortcut connects the southern waterways of Holodrum Plain to the southern parts of Spool Swamp. To the east of the shortcut, a sign tells the people of Holodrum that the Spool Swamp Shortcut is nearby.{{Ref|name=sign}} The shortcut contains only one screen, providing a shorter way to the swamp. In the water, passers-by should avoid the three [[Water Tektite]]s and swim around the four reefs. While not having too many features on the watery path, a [[cave]] can be found carved into the northern wall. The cave is filled up with water, with a treasure chest in the middle of the room. The treasure chest contains a [[Seed Ring]]. When appraised, the ring becomes the [[Octo Ring]].

Once Link receives the [[Flippers|Zora's Flippers]] or [[Dimitri's Flute]], Link can take the shortcut to Spool Swamp. In [[Spring]], Link can not use the shortcut in order to access Holodrum Plain through Spool Swamp as currents block the exit of the swamp.
