{{Term/Store|Death Mountain||Series, TLoZ, TP, TPHD}} is a recurring location in {{TLoZ|Series}}.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= |book= E |publisher= |page= 220 {{Exp Game|TLoZ}} & 112 {{Exp Game|TP}}}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|{{Big|'''Death Mountain'''}}|Map|BotW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|{{Big|'''Death Mountain'''}}|Map|TotK}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|{{Big|{{Color|HWAoC Map|'''Death Mountain'''}}}}|Map|HWAoC}}</ref> It is a tall, often volcanic mountain that can be found in [[Hyrule]], the [[Dark World]], and [[Lorule]].

In {{ALttP}}, Death Mountain can be found on the northern border of Hyrule. It is home to many [[Deadrock]]s and numerous caves filled with [[Keese]] and [[Mini-Moldorm]]s among other enemies. At the very peak of mountain, the [[Tower of Hera (A Link to the Past)|Tower of Hera]] can be found beyond Spectacle Rock. Without traveling to the [[Dark World]], Link cannot scale this peak to reach the dungeon and the final [[Pendant of Virtue]]. Here, the  hero also meets the [[Lost Old Man]], and by saving him, he is able to start the game from his hideout in the Mountain Cave. Later on in his quest, he is able to obtain the [[Ether Medallion]] from a {{Term|ALttP|Hylian Monolith|link}} and gain access to the {{Term|ALttP|Secret Store|link}}. Death Mountain is covered by constantly-tumbling boulders.

Its Dark World counterpart is home to {{Term|ALttP|Turtle Rock|link}} and [[Ganon's Tower (A Link to the Past)|Ganon's Tower]], found where the Tower of Hera is in the [[Light World]]. Ganon's Tower itself is guarded by Lynels. The Dark World counterpart is volcanic, with rocks constantly dripping with magma. The [[Cane of Byrna]] can also be found hidden in its caves.

In {{FSA}}, Death Mountain appears as an area of Hyrule and as the third [[Levels in Four Swords Adventures|Level]]. It consists of three Stages: [[Death Mountain Foothills]], [[The Mountain Path]], and [[Tower of Flames]].

In {{ALBW}}, the volcano upon Death Mountain, Spectacle Rock, is active, which causes boulders to fall across the lower areas of the mountain. Spectacle Rock is now near the [[Tower of Hera (A Link Between Worlds)|Tower of Hera]]. As the Dark World is not present in {{ALBW|-}}, going through it is not necessary to reach the Tower of Hera. The cave system on the eastern side of Death Mountain is complex, containing several moving platforms that Link must fall on in order to reach the exits. One of the exits leads to [[Rosso's Ore Mine]], which contains a portal to [[Lorule]].

Death Mountain has become dormant, causing the lava flows that were present in {{BotW|-}} to solidify and the surrounding terrain to become safe to travel without Flame Guard (with the exception of some of its caves). Its crater is now a [[Chasm]] leading to the [[Death Mountain Depths]], as well as the location that Link and Yunobo battle {{Term|TotK|Moragia|link}}.
