Gerudo is both a region and a race found in Breath of the Wild. The Gerudo region is found in the southwestern part of Hyrule and consists of the Gerudo Desert and surrounding mountainous areas known as the Gerudo Highlands. The Gerudo region is inhabited by the Gerudo, a predominantly female race that makes the Gerudo Desert their home.


Region

The Gerudo region is located in the southwest corner of Hyrule. Its neighboring regions are Hebra to the north, Central Hyrule to the northeast, and Faron to the east. Only one road provides easy travel through Gerudo, entering the Gerudo Highlands from Hyrule Field and winding through the Gerudo Canyon Pass. After exiting the Gerudo Canyon Pass, it extends into the Gerudo Desert as far Gerudo Town.

Gerudo Town is the only city found within the Gerudo region and is home to the Gerudo, the all-female race from the Gerudo region. Kara Kara Bazaar is the only other regularly inhabited location within the Gerudo region, 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 region 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.

Enemies in the Gerudo Region

Guardians are mostly scarce in this region. 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 Taluses 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. Less commonly, a few Lynels may be found on higher peaks in the northern Gerudo Highlands.

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 region 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.

Lesser enemies include:


Race

The Gerudo are a mostly female race primarily living in Gerudo Town. No male Gerudo are ever met, but Gerudo voe clothing can be bought from the Gerudo Secret Club indicating that Gerudo men do indeed exist, but are rarely born.

Makeela Riju is the current chief of the Gerudo, having succeeded her mother after her death. She assists Link in his efforts to reclaim the Divine Beast Vah Naboris.

Many Gerudo are trained in combat. They are trained by Teake and Liana in Gerudo Town and guard the city to prevent any voe from entering. Gerudo guardswomen also protect Kara Kara Bazaar from the many monsters in the region. A training compound is located in Gerudo Town where Gerudo warriors train against each other and on dummies made for practice.

Though most Gerudo continue to live in Gerudo Town, many leave to travel across Hyrule and are met by Link during their travels. The most frequent reason for Gerudo leaving is to either sell their wares in distant locations or to marry. With no Gerudo voe, Gerudo who wish to marry leave Gerudo Town to travel across Hyrule in hopes of finding a husband. Even after marrying, many Gerudo return to Gerudo Town to sell wares they procure during their travels.
