{{Term|TFH|Deku Forest (Level)}} is a large, open woodland with rivers and waterfalls. As the first {{Term|TFH|Level|link}}, it features very basic puzzles which require either {{Term|TFH|Totem|link}} formations or the {{Term|TFH|Bow|link}} to solve. Since all three {{Plural|TFH|Links|link}} must use this {{Term|TFH|Item|link}}, the {{Term|TFH|Kokiri Clothes|link}} are useful in this {{Term|TFH|Level}}.

'''{{Term|TFH|Stage|link}} 1''' starts the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} off in a clearing within the {{Term|TFH|Deku Forest (Level)|display=Forest}}, on a dirt ledge. Ahead of them are three {{Plural|TFH|Bow}}, surrounded by bushes. There are also {{Plural|TFH|Jar|link}} and {{Plural|TFH|Grass|link}} that can be cut. To the east is a ledge with several {{Plural|TFH|Rock|link}}, three {{Plural|TFH|Green Rupee|link}}, and one {{Term|TFH|Blue Rupee|link}}, which can only be reached by tossing a {{Term|TFH|Links}} up by forming a {{Term|TFH|Totem}}. A small stream separates the next portion of the {{Term|TFH|Stage}}, and a small bridge crosses over to it. On each side of the bridge are elevated statues with a {{Term|TFH|Blue Rupee}} on top of them, and in the river's west end are three {{Plural|TFH|Green Rupee}}. The next portion of the {{Term|TFH|Stage}} holds the {{Term|TFH|Triforce Gateway|link}}, but it is blocked by a wooden {{Term|TFH|Gate|link}}. In order to open this {{Term|TFH|Gate}}, the three {{Plural|TFH|Links}} must simultaneously stand on {{Plural|TFH|Floor Switch|link}} elevated at three different levels. The right log requires the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} to form a {{Term|TFH|Totem}} of three, and have the middle {{Term|TFH|Links}} throw the top {{Term|TFH|Links}} onto it, whereas the left log only requires a {{Term|TFH|Totem}} of two to reach. Around the {{Term|TFH|Gate|link}} are {{Plural|TFH|Rock|link}} and {{Plural|TFH|Jar|link}}, and behind it are some bushes.

'''{{Term|TFH|Stage}} 2''' places the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} in an area with several ledges and eight {{Plural|TFH|Blob|link}} scattered across them. Every {{Term|TFH|Blob}} must be defeated before the {{Term|TFH|Triforce Gateway}} appears. The ledge on the east side holds three {{Plural|TFH|Green Rupee}} and can be climbed using a ramp, but the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} need to be thrown onto the other ledges. The top ledge holds two {{Plural|TFH|Heart|link}} and two {{Plural|TFH|Treasure Chest|link}}, one containing three more {{Plural|TFH|Heart}}, and one containing a {{Term|TFH|Blue Rupee}}. {{Plural|TFH|Jar}}, {{Plural|TFH|Rock}}, and bushes litter the area.

'''{{Term|TFH|Stage}} 3''' tasks the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} with navigating a series of cliffs high above a body of {{Term|TFH|Water (Terrain)|link}}. They begin on one with a {{Term|TFH|Shock Switch|link}}; striking it activates a nearby platform to move toward them, allowing them to cross a gap to the next cliff. This cliff has a second, elevated ledge, which two {{Plural|TFH|Links}} must be thrown onto and {{Term|TFH|Totem}} in order to strike a {{Term|TFH|Shock Switch|display=Switch}} across a gap with their {{Term|TFH|Bow}}. This {{Term|TFH|Shock Switch}} activates another platform which takes them to the third cliff. A {{Term|TFH|Treasure Chest}} with a {{Term|TFH|Blue Rupee}} and a {{Term|TFH|Treasure Chest|display=Chest}} with a {{Term|TFH|Red Rupee|link}} can be found here, the latter only reached through tossing the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} up to it. A {{Term|TFH|Blob}} is near each {{Term|TFH|Treasure Chest|display=Chest}}. Between this cliff and the fourth, a platform automatically moves back and forth across a gap, and an elevated {{Term|TFH|Shock Switch}} rests between them in an alcove above. This {{Term|TFH|Shock Switch|display=Switch}} can only be activated by firing an {{Term|TFH|Arrow|link}} at it by the {{Term|TFH|Links}} atop a full {{Term|TFH|Totem}}. Once struck, a bridge between the fourth and final cliffs appears, and the {{Term|TFH|Triforce Gateway}} activates. A {{Term|TFH|Squiddy|link}} rests on the fourth cliff, while two {{Plural|TFH|Heart}} rest on an elevated ledge of the final one. {{Plural|TFH|Jar}}, {{Plural|TFH|Rock}}, and {{Plural|TFH|Grass|link}} litter the whole {{Term|TFH|Stage}}.

'''{{Term|TFH|Stage}} 4''' takes place in another forest clearing. The {{Plural|TFH|Links}} begin on an elevated ledge, with four {{Plural|TFH|Totem Deku|link}} below. These {{Plural|TFH|Enemy|link}} must be attacked with {{Plural|TFH|Bow}}, as they retreat underground when approached. One {{Term|TFH|Totem Deku}} rests at ground level, while two require a two-{{Term|TFH|Links}} {{Term|TFH|Totem}} to reach, and the last requires a full {{Term|TFH|Totem}}. Once they are all defeated, a closed {{Term|TFH|Gate}} opens, revealing the area in which the {{Term|TFH|Triforce Gateway}} then appears. Twelve {{Plural|TFH|Green Rupee}}, {{Plural|TFH|Grass}}, and {{Plural|TFH|Jar}} can be found around the {{Term|TFH|Stage}}.
