All Geoglyph Memory locations in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

By

A similar storytelling technique from Breath of the Wild returns in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, which is using memories to fill in gaps in the narrative. These, like most activities in the game, are not required to actually complete the game but are essential if you want to fully understand the narrative and history of Hryule and its people. There are 11 to find and view on the main map — none are on a Sky Island or down in the Depths — with a final Geoglyph appearing only after you’ve collected all the others. These appear as giant pictures of figures when viewed from above (hence the name), with a Dragon Tear somewhere on the figure you need to interact with so we will refer to them based on their official numbering, but you are able to find the first 11 in any order you wish. If you’re ready to dive into some memories in Tears of the Kingdom, here’s where you can find all the Geoglyph Memories.

All Geoglyph Memory locations

Tear of the Dragon #1

This Geoglyph is to the west of Hyrule Castle, with the actual Tear being on Rauru’s right eye.

Tear of the Dragon #2

Nintendo

Just east of Rito village in the Tabantha HIlls, the Tear is in the center of the Geoglyph above the door.

Coordinates: -2551, 1888, 0319

Tear of the Dragon #3

Nintendo

Straight south of Eldin Canyon, this image of a Switch, or Purah Pad, has the Tear directly in the middle.

Coordinates: 1828, 0737, 0089

Tear of the Dragon #4

Nintendo

On the southeast side of Hyrule field, close to Batrea Lake, this curling dragon holds the Tear on the bottom left where its tail curls back.

Coordinates: 0694, -1309, 0053

Tear of the Dragon #5

Nintendo

South of Gerudo Highlands, this one is tricky since it is carved onto a cliff wall. The Tear itself is on a ledge where Ganondorf’s shoulder lays.

Coordinates: -3178, -1699, 0418

Tear of the Dragon #6

Nintendo

Between Hyrule Ridge and the Gerudo Highlands on the Illumeni Plateau, the Tear is on the right side of Sonia’s dress.

Coordinates: -3096, -0077, 0211

Tear of the Dragon #7

Nintendo

Way down in Cape Cresla, this massive sword has a Tear on the left side of the handguard when looking at it with the blade pointing away from you.

Coordinates: 3325, -3566, 0004

Tear of the Dragon #8

Nintendo

Up in the Tabatha Tundra, beyond the Snowfield stable, look hard through the snowy weather to find the Geoglyph of the Demon King. The Tear itself is on the western side of the image.

Coordinates: -1863, 3621, 0236

Tear of the Dragon #9

Nintendo

On the Talus Plateau, this small Geoglyph holds the Tear on the top left side.

Coordinates: 4467, -0304, 0074

Tear of the Dragon #10

Nintendo

Right on the western edge of Lake Hylia, the Tear is on the top of the left flower of the Shrine.

Coordinates: -0649, -2683, 0068

Tear of the Dragon #11

Nintendo

This is another tricky one but look for the cliff right on the edge of the Eldin Mountains coming from the east. The Tear is on the tip of the blade.

Coordinates: 0891, 2951, 0362

Final Geoglyph

The tricky part about finding the last Geoglyph is that, well, there isn’t a Geoglyph at all to help you spot it. Instead, head to the Rist Peninsula at the far northeast end of the map and enter the swirling section of land. Get to the center of the spiral to see the final Tear near the Gemimik Shrine.

Coordinates: 4534, 2144, 0000

How to find the Fifth Sage in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

For as open and freeform as The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is, even allowing you to skip essentially every quest in the game and go straight to the final boss, you will be missing a ton by doing so. At the very least, most players will want to complete all the main quests before marching into the final encounter, which will take many hours. One quest is taking some adventurers a long time to complete, not due to its difficulty, but because they have no idea how to complete it.

The Fifth Sage quest is one of the most enigmatic in the entire game in what you're supposed to do to complete it. You're only given a single clue, and it's not a very helpful one at that.

The best horses in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

There are plenty of ways to roam the land of Hyrule in Breath of the Wild, but few are as well-developed as horse riding. Not only does the game let you tame a variety of horses found in the wild, but you can customize your horse by changing its saddle, bridle, and even its physical attributes. Toss in the ability to discover Malanya, the horse god, and there's a lot to unpack with this down-to-earth travel method.

However, not all horses are worth taming and adding to your stable. And since horse taming is a time-consuming task, it's important to know the best horses in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild so you don't waste your day chasing a steed that's not much faster than Link.

How (and where) to trade Poes in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

It might take place in the same Hyrule as Breath of the Wild, but Tears of the Kingdom's landscape is radically different from its predecessor. Along with massive floating islands in the sky, there's a sprawling underworld to explore that's filled with secrets to discover and abilities to unlock.

What are Poes in Tears of the Kingdom?
