Mount Hylia is a location in Breath of the Wild. It is a cold and snowy mountain in the southwest portion of the Great Plateau, located just southwest of the River of the Dead. It is inhabited with ice enemies, namely Ice Keese and Ice Chuchu. The Owa Daim Shrine is located on the far eastern side of the mountain, and the Keh Namut Shrine is located northwest of the peak of Mount Hylia.

Overview

Due to its higher elevation, Mount Hylia is a cold and snow-filled area within Great Plateau. It has a natural topography associated with most mountains, with many cliffs and paths leading to its peak. The area does have some Bokoblin camps that inhabit the region.

The first time that Link arrives at the peak of Mount Hylia, he will be greeted by the Old Man. It is here that he will teach Link the Scope ability for the Sheikah Slate. Also, if Link does not have the proper attire, the Old Man will be impressed by Links ability to navigate such a cold area. He will reward Link with the Warm Doublet, an item that allows Link to be more resistant to the cold.

Also at the peak of the mountain, Link can search the area to find miscellaneous material including Flint.

There are multiple Shrine of Trials in the Mount Hylia region of Great Plateau. Just northwest of the peak there is another, smaller peak where the Keh Namut Shrine can be found. It is located at a higher elevation near a small icy pond. Also to the far southeast portion of the mountain range is the Owa Daim Shrine.
