Snowhead Region

In Majora's Mask, Snowhead is the name of the Northern area of Termina, where a strange change in the weather has turned the area from a calm spring to a raging winter.

Mountain Village
Mountain Village is home to the Snowhead Blacksmiths, who are able to upgrade Link's sword. There is also a Goron is stranded on a cliff-face in this area, and Link is able to rescue him by revitalizing the Goron's strength with a Rock Sirloin from Goron Shrine, receiving Don Gero's Mask in return.

High above a cliff rests the Goron Graveyard, which is the resting place of the Goron hero, Darmani; however, in order to access it during the winter, Link will have to use the Lens of Truth to help him see which path to take in order to successfully climb the cliff. It is in this graveyard that Darmani bestows his powers to Link in the form of the Goron Mask. Once Goht is defeated and sprint returns to the mountains, the Lens of Truth is no longer needed to climb the cliff, and a new, easier pathway to the Goron Graveyard is opened up.

Mountain Village is the main area that leads to all of the prominent locations of Snowhead, so Link must pass through here in order to access the other regions. The east leads to the Goron Village, while the west yields a path towards Snowhead and, ultimately, the Snowhead Temple itself.

Spectacle Rock
Spectacle Rock, also known as The Twin Islands, lies in the center of Snowhead which leads to the Goron Village. During the Winter, they are surrounded by a frozen lake and connected to the shore by a series of bridges which are guarded by a pair of White Wolfos. The Goron Elder can be found on the surface of the lake, frozen and covered by a buildup of snow. Once Snowhead Temple is cleared and Spring has returned to the mountains, Link is able to access a Piece of Heart on the bottom of the thawed lake by transforming into a Zora. On a cliff overlooking the Twin Islands, the Goron Races are held.

Goron Village
Accessible via a series of rope bridges across the Twin Islands is the residence of the Gorons, the Goron Village. Since the weather has been so cold, many of the Gorons have retreated into the Goron Shrine in the center of the village. To the east side of the village is a cave housing the Lens of Truth. Medigoron can also be found selling Powder Kegs on the other side of this area.

During the winter, a single Goron will be standing on top of the Goron Shrine entrance, allowing Link entrance to it if he doesn't possess the Goron Mask. Once spring returns to the village, most Gorons (including the Goron Elder can be found either inside the Shrine or at the Goron Racetrack.

Goron Shrine
Goron Shrine is the home place to many Gorons during the winter, including the Goron Elder's Son. The sharp cries of the baby cause the rest of the Gorons to become uneasy, trying to cover the ears and zone out the bawling and screaming of the Elder's son. Once Goron Link plays the Goron Lullaby to the child, he will fall asleep, lighting the torches in his room and relieving the rest of the Gorons of his cries.

Torches can be found all around the Goron Shrine and, once they are all lit up, the chandelier above will light up and start spinning. By breaking one of the Goron heads on the chandelier, Link can find a Rock Sirloin and take it to a hungry Goron.

The entrance of the Goron Shrine is tightly shut during the winter, and it only stays open for a short amount of time in order to keep the cold from coming inside; however, in the spring, the door is widely open for anyone to freely come and go.

Snowhead Mountain
Snowhead Mountain, being overcome with strong blizzards, is a threat to anyone who is not fully prepared for its many dangers. It is here that Darmani lost his life due to being blown away by the strong chilly winds. Using the Lens of Truth, Link discovers that the blizzards are being caused by a giant, invisible Goron who is unaware of all the chaos he's been causing to the mountain. Playing the Goron Lullaby on the drums successfully puts this Goron to sleep, allowing Link to access the top of the mountain and enter its temple, the Snowhead Temple.

Snowhead Mountain is notable for its high population of Ice Bats and White Wolfos.
