'''Gerudo''' is | '''Gerudo''' is a province in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''. The Gerudo province is found in the southwestern part of [[Hyrule]] and consists of the [[Gerudo Desert (Breath of the Wild)|Gerudo Desert]] and surrounding mountainous areas known as the [[Gerudo Highlands]]. The Gerudo province is named after and primarily inhabited by the [[Gerudo]], a predominantly female race that makes the Gerudo Desert their home. | ||
== | ==Province== | ||
The Gerudo | The Gerudo province is located in the southwest corner of Hyrule. Its neighboring provinces are [[Hebra]] to the north, [[Central Hyrule]] to the northeast, and [[Faron (Breath of the Wild)|Faron]] to the east. Only one road provides easy travel through Gerudo, entering the [[Gerudo Highlands]] from [[Hyrule Field (Breath of the Wild)|Hyrule Field]] and winding through the [[Gerudo Canyon Pass]]. After exiting the Gerudo Canyon Pass, it extends into the [[Gerudo Desert (Breath of the Wild)|Gerudo Desert]] as far as [[Gerudo Town]]. | ||
Gerudo Town is the only city found within the Gerudo province and is home to the Gerudo, the all-female race from the Gerudo province. [[Kara Kara Bazaar]] is the only other regularly inhabited location within the Gerudo province, home to a few merchants who have traveled from Gerudo Town and a resting place for travelers crossing the Gerudo Desert. | |||
Temperatures vary greatly in the Gerudo province with the Gerudo Desert being hot enough to require level 2 heat resistance when traveling during the day and level 2 cold resistance needed in both the Gerudo Desert during the night and all day in the Gerudo Highlands. | |||

[[Gerudo Canyon Stable]] is the only stable within the Gerudo province and can be found at the end of the Gerudo Canyon Pass where it meets the Gerudo Desert. | |||
The [[Great Fairy Tera]] can be found in the southwest corner of the Gerudo Desert by the [[Gerudo Great Skeleton]]. | |||

===Enemies in the Gerudo Province=== | |||
[[Guardian (Breath of the Wild)|Guardians]] are mostly scarce in this province. They are found primarily in the southernmost part of the Gerudo Highlands along the southern edge of the Hyrule border, surrounding the [[South Lomei Labyrinth]]. | |||
[[Stone Talus]]es of varying types can be found throughout the Gerudo Highlands, while the [[Molduga]] is found in the Gerudo Desert. Unlike the Stone Talus, which can be found all throughout Hyrule, the Molduga only inhabits the Gerudo Desert. The strongest of the Moldugas is the [[Molduking]], of which there is only one. It is found in the southern part of the [[East Barrens]], in the Gerudo Desert. Less commonly, a few [[Lynel]]s may be found on higher peaks in the northern Gerudo Highlands, and none in the desert proper. | |||
The headquarters of the [[Yiga Clan]] can also be found in the Gerudo Highlands, in a canyon to the north of Gerudo Desert. | |||
The dragon [[Farosh]] can also be found flying through the Gerudo province along the peaks of the northern Gerudo Highlands. It is most accessible when it crosses the [[Gerudo Summit]], flying low through the small canyon that runs the length of the summit. | |||
The most common lesser enemies in the desert are [[Electric Lizalfos]]. Other lesser enemies include: | |||
*[[Black Bokoblin]] | |||
*[[Blue Bokoblin]] | |||
*[[Blue Lizalfos]] | |||
*[[Bokoblin]] | |||
*[[Electric Chuchu]] | |||
*[[Fire-Breath Lizalfos]] | |||
*[[Frost Pebblit]] | |||
*[[Ice Chuchu]] | |||
*[[Ice Keese]] | |||
*[[Ice Wizzrobe]] | |||
*[[Ice-Breath Lizalfos]] | |||
*[[Lizalfos]] | |||
*[[Moblin]] | |||
*[[Rock Octorok]] | |||
*[[Stalizalfos]] | |||
*[[Stalmoblin]] | |||
*[[Treasure Octorok]] | |||
==Trivia== | |||
*The Province has the lowest concentration of [[Korok Seed]]s in the game, with just 106 (combining the [[Gerudo Tower]] and [[Wasteland Tower]] Regions). That's less than 1/9 of all the seeds in the game, for an area that covers roughly 1/6 of the map on its own. | |||
*The [[Voltfruit]], the [[Molduga]], the [[Wasteland Coyote]], and the [[Sand Seal]] are native only to the Gerudo province and cannot be found anywhere else in [[Hyrule]]. The [[Hydromelon]] is native to the Gerudo Province, but can be found elsewhere in Hyrule too. [[Zap Shroom]]s are also found in the Highlands and the Gerudo Canyon, but they are considerably easier to farm in Akkala. | |||
* The geographical features of the [[Gerudo Desert (Breath of the Wild)|Gerudo Desert]], as well as the presence of the [[Gerudo Great Skeleton]], the other giant skeletons, and the marine-lifelike [[Molduga]]s imply that it may have been a vast sea in the past, as the [[Gerudo Canyon Pass]] leading to the desert may have been carved out of solid rock by a now dried river that led to the aforementioned sea, and the various archways at the [[Great Cliffs]] may have been water-carved too. The [[Karusa Valley]] may have also been carved by a glacier from the [[Gerudo Highlands]]. | |||
* The presence of [[Hydromelon]]s and [[Voltfruit]] cacti in the desert implies that there are numerous pockets of water under the desert sands. | |||
* Most of the stone in the ruins of the province, as well as [[Gerudo Town]] itself, is implied to have come from the marble/limestone quarry east of the [[Gerudo Desert Gateway]], though no Gerudo or Hyruleans are found there. The causeways flanking the [[Gerudo Canyon Pass]] may have been related to the quarry as well, though some of those causeways were shown in a flashback when the [[Divine Beast Vah Naboris]] was dug out. However, older constructs are shown to have been carved out of the red stone from the mountains surrounding the desert, including the [[Seven Heroines]] and the [[Eighth Heroine]]. | |||
*Completely lacking in large bodies of water, the Gerudo Province is devoid of [[Zora]] peoples. | |||
*Neither the [[Kara Kara Bazaar]] nor [[Gerudo Town]] are subjected to sandstorms or crosswinds, their sources of water being protected for consumption. | |||
