How do I find the memory near the Woodland Tower in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild?

To find the memory near the Woodland Tower in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, you need to follow a series of steps that involve exploration, puzzle-solving, and careful observation. This memory is part of the "Captured Memories" quest, which is given to you by Impa in Kakariko Village after you complete the "Seek Out Impa" main quest. The memory near the Woodland Tower is one of 12 scattered across Hyrule, and each memory reveals a piece of Link's past with Princess Zelda. HereÔÇÖs a detailed guide on how to find this specific memory.

First, you need to have the "Captured Memories" quest active. If you havenÔÇÖt already, speak to Impa in Kakariko Village to receive the quest. She will give you a clue about the memory locations, and you can also find a picture of each memory location in your Sheikah SlateÔÇÖs album. The memory near the Woodland Tower is located in the Eldin region, specifically in the area known as the Eldin Canyon. The exact location is near the Woodland Stable, which is close to the Woodland Tower.

To reach the Woodland Tower, you can fast travel to the tower if youÔÇÖve already activated it. If not, youÔÇÖll need to climb it. The Woodland Tower is surrounded by water, so youÔÇÖll need to find a way to cross it. One common method is to use Cryonis to create ice pillars in the water, allowing you to jump across. Alternatively, you can use a raft or swim if you have enough stamina. Once youÔÇÖre at the base of the tower, climb it to activate the fast travel point.

From the Woodland Tower, head northwest toward the Woodland Stable. The memory is located just south of the stable, near a small pond. When you arrive at the location, youÔÇÖll notice a large rock formation with a small pond in front of it. The memory is triggered by standing in the correct spot near the pond. Look for the glowing spot on the ground, which indicates where you need to stand to activate the memory. Once youÔÇÖre in the right position, a cutscene will play, showing LinkÔÇÖs memory of Princess Zelda.

ItÔÇÖs important to note that the memory wonÔÇÖt trigger unless youÔÇÖre standing in the exact spot. If youÔÇÖre having trouble finding it, use the picture in your Sheikah SlateÔÇÖs album as a reference. The picture shows the rock formation and the pond, so compare it to your surroundings to ensure youÔÇÖre in the right place. If youÔÇÖre still having trouble, try adjusting your position slightly or moving around the area until the memory triggers.

One common mistake players make is not having the "Captured Memories" quest active. Without the quest, the memory wonÔÇÖt trigger, even if youÔÇÖre in the correct location. Make sure youÔÇÖve spoken to Impa and received the quest before attempting to find the memory. Another mistake is not using the Sheikah SlateÔÇÖs album as a reference. The pictures in the album are crucial for identifying the exact locations of the memories, so always refer to them when searching.

In terms of preparation, you donÔÇÖt need any special items to find the memory near the Woodland Tower. However, itÔÇÖs always a good idea to have a decent amount of stamina and health, as you may encounter enemies along the way. The area around the Woodland Tower and Woodland Stable is relatively safe, but itÔÇÖs still wise to be prepared for any potential threats. If youÔÇÖre low on health or stamina, consider cooking some meals or elixirs to boost your stats before heading out.

An alternative approach to finding the memory is to use the Sheikah Sensor+. If youÔÇÖve upgraded your Sheikah Sensor at the Hateno Ancient Tech Lab, you can set it to detect the memory locations. This can make finding the memories much easier, as the sensor will beep when youÔÇÖre near a memory location. To use the Sheikah Sensor+, open your map and select the memory picture you want to find. The sensor will then guide you to the correct location.

In summary, finding the memory near the Woodland Tower involves activating the "Captured Memories" quest, using the Sheikah SlateÔÇÖs album as a reference, and carefully exploring the area near the Woodland Stable. Make sure youÔÇÖre standing in the exact spot to trigger the memory, and use the Sheikah Sensor+ if you have it. With these steps, youÔÇÖll be able to uncover this piece of LinkÔÇÖs past and progress further in the story of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
