Tanagar Canyon is a very long canyon in Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.

Breath of the Wild

The Canyon forms the border between Hebra and the Central Hyrule and Gerudo provinces. It extends from just north of the Gerudo Highlands all the way to the Forgotten Temple, located east of the Snowfield Stable.

Throughout the canyon, there are numerous windmills setup of varying heights. Most of the canyon is fairly desolate, but there are a few enemy Black Lizalfos and some Maraudo Wolves that roam around. There is very little vegetation, with just some Rushrooms on the cliffs, as well as some uncommon Cool Safflina.

The Tabantha Great Bridge extends over the Tanagar Canyon, connecting the Hyrule Ridge and Tabantha Frontier regions. The area near the Tabantha Great Bridge is one of the locations where Dinraal passes by on some mornings. A fantastic way to farm some of Dinraal's materials is to first travel to the Tabantha Bridge Stable. Sit by the campfire until the morning and then run over to the bridge, Dinraal will pass underneath the bridge each morning around 7am and since it travels below the bridge, Link has plenty of time to aim his shot and gather whichever material he needs.

Just south of the start of the Tanagar Canyon, there is a Bokoblin base with Red Bokoblin, Blue Bokoblin, and Black Bokoblin. After defeating all the enemies, Link can open the treasure chest to get a Sapphire gem.

Tanagar Canyon Course

At the center of the canyon, Link will find the Tanagar Canyon Course. Located directly south of the Tabantha Great Bridge, this is the location of the Boom Bam Golf mini-game. Link can speak with the Goron named Modar to play the game. It costs 20 Rupees and plays as a single hole of golf. The goal is to use Stasis and hit the ball into the hole in as few hits as possible. If Link can get the ball into the hole within 4 or 5 hits, he will earn a Purple Rupee. However, the grand prize of a Silver Rupee is given if Link gets the ball into the hole within 3 hits.

Dunba Taag Shrine

The Dunba Taag Shrine can be found at the very bottom of the Tanagar Canyon, located just southeast of the stable. Also known as Build and Release, the shrine requires Link to use Stasis and give items and objects kinetic energy where they can then be used to press switches or knock down large slabs. At the end of the shrine, meet up with Dunba Taag at the altar to get a Spirit Orb.

Tears of the Kingdom

The Tanagar Canyon can be found just north of the Gerudo Highlands and extends all the way north to the Forgotten Temple.

A Stone Talus (Rare) can be found, just beyond the third windmill. Just east of the Ancient Columns, there are some Zonai Ruins down in the canyon. On top of the ruins there is a chest that contains five Bomb Flowers.

Gasas Shrine

The Gasas Shrine can be found at the start of the canyon, at the far west end. Titled Well-Timed Cuts, the shrine requires Link to cut ropes down using Arrows, to drop boxes, orbs, and treasure chests.

Korok Seeds

  • Just passed the second windwmill, going from west to east, there is a block puzzle on the higher ledge to the north. Place the block to complete the windmill puzzle to get the Korok Seed.
  • Just south of the third windmill, going from west to east, drop down to the far bottom of the canyon. Underneath the overhang, there is a stump on the ceiling. Ascend through to get the Korok Seed.
  • Directly south of the Tabantha Great Bridge there are some tall rocks at the bottom of the canyon. Tucked behind these is a small stump. Step on it and race to the yellow circle. Use Ascend to get through the Zonai Ruins and reach the circle quicker.
  • Near the windmill southeast of Rito Village, there is a metal block puzzle at the very bottom of the canyon. Place the block in its proper location to get the Korok Seed.
