The '''Cave of Ordeals''' is an optional dungeon in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'', located below the [[Gerudo Mesa]]. Containing a total of fifty floors, the cave can be accessed any time after restoring the [[Bridge of Eldin]], unblocking the entrance. However, to make it into the deeper floors, [[Link]] will need weapons and items from further along in the game. Within the cave, Link has to fight his way through hordes of enemies, and only by defeating each enemy within that room will he be able to progress to the next floor.

The {{Term|TPHD|Cave of Ordeals}} is located below the {{Term|TPHD|Gerudo Mesa|link}}, and can be accessed any time after restoring the {{Term|TPHD|Bridge of Eldin|link}}, as [[Warping|warping]] the Bridge back to its original location will reveal the Cave's entrance. The {{Term|TPHD|Dungeon}} contains a total of fifty floors; however, to make it into the deeper floors, {{Term|TPHD|Link|link}} will need several [[Items in Twilight Princess|Items]] from further along in the game. Within the Cave, {{Term|TPHD|Link}} has to fight his way through hordes of enemies, and only by defeating each enemy within a floor will he be able to progress to the next floor.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*The Cave of Ordeals plays the same role as the [[Savage Labyrinth]] from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'', the difference is that the Cave requires the main items of dungeons 4 to 7 in order to explore all the floors and fully clear it. It also resembles the [[Take 'Em All On]] Game in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks|Spirit Tracks]]''.
*The Cave of Ordeals plays the same role as the [[Savage Labyrinth]] from {{TWW}}; the difference being that the Cave of Ordeals requires the main items from the [[Lakebed Temple]], {{Term|TPHD|Arbiter's Grounds (Dungeon)|link}}, [[Snowpeak Ruins]], the [[Temple of Time]], and the [[City in the Sky]] in order to explore all of the floors and fully clear it. Another difference is that the Cave of Ordeals is completely optional, while the first 31 rooms of the Savage Labyrinth must be completed in order to progress in the game.
*The second time completing the Cave, on the last ledge before the Great Fairy, the [[Postman]] is squatting down while trying to read a letter.
*The second time completing the Cave, on the last ledge before the {{Term|TPHD|Great Fairy}}, the {{Term|TPHD|Postman|link}} can be found squatting down trying to read a {{Term|TPHD|Letter|link}}.
*The Cave of Ordeals plays the same role as the [[smw:Pit of 100 Trials (Rogueport)|Pit of 100 Trials]] in ''{{smw|Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door}}'' and ''{{smw|Super Paper Mario}}''.
*A cheat used for debugging purposes was accidentally left in the North American [[Wii]] 1.0 release of {{TP|-}}. If {{Term|TPHD|Link}} uses the {{Term|TPHD|Gale Boomerang|link}} to extinguish the {{Plural|TPHD|Torchlight|link}} on almost any floor of the {{Term|TPHD|Cave of Ordeals}}, the following room's door will be opened without the need to defeat any enemies.
