Skull Woods (A Link to the Past)

The Skull Woods is the third dungeon in the Dark World in A Link to the Past.

It is located in the northwest above the Village of Outcasts, in the area also known as the Skull Woods. The main treasure is the Fire Rod, and the end boss is Mothula. After defeating it, Link will receive a Heart Container and the third crystal.

This dungeon is interesting because instead of a single main entrance, the Skull Woods contain multiple entrances to the dungeon. Entrance is gained by various holes and pitfalls throughout, and the final entrance to the boss is gained by a huge skull head where the Master Sword used to be. This makes it unique among the dungeons so far featured in the Zelda series.
