Risoka Snowfield
Risoka Snowfield is a location found in Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.
Breath of the Wild
The Risoka Snowfield is a very expansive region at the west end of the Gerudo Highlands. Due to its high elevation, the climate is very cold, requiring Link to wear armor with Cold Resistance, such as the Snowquill Set. Throughout the snowfield there are numerous colder climate enemies as well as tons of hidden treasure that is buried in the snow.
In the overnight hours, it will always be snowing, but it will break out into total sunshine each morning at 6am.
Kema Kosassa Shrine
- Main article: Kema Kosassa Shrine
At the west end of the snowfield, the Kema Kosassa Shrine can be found. It is A Major Test of Strength shrine with the Guardian Scout IV wielding a Guardian Spear++, Guardian Shield++, and an Ancient Battle Axe++. The treasure chest within the shrine contains a Silver Rupee. Link can then speak with Kema Kosassa at the altar to get a Spirit Orb.

Tears of the Kingdom
The Snowfield is a very large, flat area, at the western end of the Gerudo Highlands. It it bitterly cold, requiring Link to have Cold Resistance in order to survive. There are some enemy Blizzrobes in the area, which wield a Sapphire Rod. A dangerous White-Maned Lynel can be found patroling the center of the Snowfield.
At the southwest end of the Snowfield, there is an enemy camp with some Blue Bokoblin, Black Bokoblin, and a Black Moblin. After defeating the enemies, Link can open a chest that contains a Royal Halberd.
At the west end of the snowfield, there is a heavily guarded enemy structure with Black Bokoblin, an Ice Like, and three Black Moblin. The entrances are blocked off but Link can enter the structure from the top. By pushing a boulder down, it will break part of the structure, revealing where the Moblin are standing by a camp fire. Inside there are two treasure chests, one containing five Bomb Flowers and another with an Ice-Breath Lizal Blade.
Korok Seeds
- At the southwest corner of the Snowfield, there are a series of trees with small red arrows next to them. They point to a tree in the middle. Climb up the tree and examine the sparkling lights to get a Korok Seed.
- At the east end of the snowfield, there is a collection of Rocks that are in a diamond shape, with one missing. It can be found just to the northeast on the the slightly lower level. Use Ultrahand to grab it and put it in place to get the Korok Seed.
- Just southeast of the Otutsum Shrine, there is an archway. Shoot the balloon that is underneath the archway to get the Korok Seed.
- At the far south end of the snowfield, there is a circular higher platform with a Korok. He wants to be reunited with his friend, who is located all the way on the north side of the snowfield, just northwest of the Otutsum Shrine. Take the pathway to the west to avoid the lynel and reunite the Koroks.
- At the far north end of the snowfield, just northwest of the Statue of the Eighth Heroine, there is a wooden rack. A large boulder can be found just below. Place the boulder so it is being held up on the rack, to get the Korok Seed.
