Spectacle Rock

Spectacle Rock is a recurring rock formation in. It typically appears as a mountain with twin peaks.

The Legend of Zelda
In, Spectacle Rock is found in northern Hyrule in the central western portion of Death Mountain. It is the location of Ganon's lair in the First Quest. In order to enter, Link must use a Bomb in the southern side of the base of its left peak to reveal the entrance.

In, Spectacle Rock is found in Death Mountain in the southwestern region of Hyrule and both of its peaks contain and are represented by caves on the map. Its eastern peak contains a cave where the Hammer is obtained after Link works his way east through its bottom level. Its western peak contains a cave that is initially covered by a rock that Link can destroy after acquiring the Hammer. Unlike the eastern peak's cave that is entered laterally, the western cave is underground where the opening is on top of the peak. A Magic Container can be found inside the cave.

A Link to the Past
In, Spectacle Rock is located on top of Death Mountain in the Light World. Being Death Mountain's highest point, it is an obstacle blocking the path to its north that leads to the Tower of Hera. The center of the adjoining bridge between its peaks contains a cave that leads to lower elevations on Death Mountain. Its counterpart in the Dark World is buried under volcanic sediment, as its outline is visible. To get to the path north of Spectacle Rock in the Light World, Link must first travel to the Dark World and stand within the outline of its counterpart. Using the Magic Mirror within this area sends Link on top of Spectacle Rock in the Light World where he can find a Piece of Heart on its eastern peak. He can then leap down to the path north of it leading to the Tower of Hera.

Breath of the Wild
In, Spectacle Rock is based on the same location from The Legend of Zelda. It appears as two large circular mesas in the east portion of the Gerudo Highlands. The Wasteland Tower can be found in a deep, swampy pit atop the northernmost mesa. After Link has freed the Divine Beast Vah Naboris, it will climb onto the southernmost mesa and aim its sights at Hyrule Castle in preparation for the battle with Calamity Ganon. There are two Koroks south of the Tower, a Korok under the bridge between the mesas, and a Korok on a big rocky pillar to the east.

Nomenclature
Spectacle Rock's name comes from the fact that the twin peaks formation resembles a pair of eyeglasses.
