'''Lake Hylia''' is a recurring location in [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]].

==''A Link to the Past''==

In ''A Link to the Past'', Lake Hylia contains many enemies like [[River Zora]]. This lake is the [[Light World]] counterpart of the [[Ice Lake]] in the [[Dark World]].

Lake Hylia lies southwest of [[Hyrule Field]]. Link can get there for the first time as a child either through [[Hyrule Field]] or through the tunnel which connects the Lake and [[Zora's Domain]]. [[Ruto's Letter]] is in the shallow water near the tunnel. As an adult, the lake has been drained. The [[Water Temple (Ocarina of Time)|Water Temple]] lies under the [[Triforce Pedestal]] island in the middle of the lake, and defeating [[Morpha]] restores the water level in the lake.

Other points of interest include the [[Fishing Pond]], [[Lakeside Laboratory]] and the twin [[scarecrow]]s [[Pierre]] and [[Bonooru]].

Lake Hylia is the first stage in [[Whereabouts of the Wind]], and in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures|Four Swords Adventures]]''. It serves primarily as a tutorial stage for the game, introducing Link to various combat styles, items, and other aspects of the game. It is filled with much scenery, including trees, rivers, waterfalls and caves. Link meets [[Kaepora Gaebora]] for the first time early in the stage, as well as [[Tingle]] later on. After obtaining and using various items to navigate the Lake, Link must defeat a group of [[Soldier]]s and their Leader, [[Chief Soldier]]. Afterwards, Link must break the [[Eye Barrier]]s at the end of the level, allowing him access to the [[Cave of No Return]].
