Deep Gorge
The Deep Gorge is a location that appears in Twilight Princess. It is located in the deepest part of Faron Woods, beside the Forest Temple. This acts as the only connection between Faron Woods and the Sacred Grove. It is the route Link must take to reach the Sacred Grove.
Story
The first time Link travels here is during the Master Sword quest. Midna acts as jumping feature seen in previous sections of the game. Link then come across two platforms which spin depending on the wind, similar in structure to the passages in the Forest Temple. During the next section, Link in wolf form has to cross two rope segments, after this obstacle Link arrives at the entrance of the Sacred Grove.
Later on in the game, Link has to pass through the gorge again. Rusl informs Link of a mysterious temple hidden deep within Faron Woods, known as the Temple of Time.[1] This time Rusl calls upon his partner, a Golden Cucco, to assist Link in reaching his desired destination.[2][3] Before moving forward, Rusl warns the hero that this task is not simple, but rather difficult if he's not careful enough.[4] Now in Hylian form, Link uses the Golden Cucco to traverse from platform to platform and he has to use the Gale Boomerang to activate the now still bridges. This enables Link to access the Sacred Grove. After this section of the game, Link is able to Warp directly to the Sacred Grove, meaning there is no true need to access this area again. In fact, Link is unable to access the Deep Gorge after this section of the game.
