The Camobatures Lightroot in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom can be difficult to reach without first locating the Serutabomac Shrine, which is located in the northeast of the Hyrule Castle surface. We’ll show you how to get to each of these so that you can find the lightroot in the depths as quickly as possible.

How to Reach the Serutabomac Shrine Zelda TotK¶

The first thing you’ll need to do before you can consider reaching the Serutabomac Shrine is to complete the Wind Temple. If you don’t know where to find this yet, be sure to check our guide on How to Reach The Wind Temple first. You can then see our detailed walkthrough for the temple, including Where to Find the Five Locks and How to Defeat The Wind Temple Boss Colgera. Once you’ve done all of this, you’ll have access to a new ability called the Power of Wind, which essentially allows you to burst forward in speed whenever you’re using the Paraglider, with the help of Tulin.

How to Get on Hyrule Castle from Lookout Landing Skyview Tower¶

Once you have access to Tulin’s Power of Wind ability, you can travel to the Looking Landing Skyview Tower (Map Marker) and use it to launch yourself into the air. As soon as you regain control of Link, look northwards and begin paragliding that way towards !Hyrule Castle. You should begin using Tulin’s Power of Wind ability as soon as possible so that you can reach the castle before you run out of stamina while paragliding, but keep in mind that there’s a short cooldown for this ability whenever you use it.

After you’ve reached the surface of !Hyrule Castle, all you need to do is head to the location of the Serutabomac Shrine in its northeast region. You’ll need to avoid some gloom along the way, but the path is relatively straightforward so long as you know where to go. You can check our map for the precise location of the shrine here.

If you haven’t completed the Wind Temple yet or you want to reach !Hyrule Castle using an alternative method, you can also use the Autobuild ability to construct a Dirigible which can be used to reach it. Another method is the use of a Hot Air Balloon, most of the components for which can be found in the grounds of Lookout Landing. You can use this to fly over the castle and then jump down to paraglide into it.

Hyrule Castle Lightroot TotK¶

Now that you’ve reached the Serutabomac Shrine on Hyrule Castle, the rest of the way to reach the Camobatures Lightroot is pretty simple. All you need to do is jump down into the Hyrule Castle Chasm directly beneath you, so head to the cliff edge to the northwest and take a leap of faith, but be ready to use your Paraglider to guide your way down into the chasm. The Camobatures Lightroot is almost directly below you here, so it’s difficult to miss, but if you want to see this process played out you can check the video below!
