The Gerudo Training Ground consists of eleven rooms full of traps, enemies, puzzles, and other obstacles that Link must overcome to receive a series of [[Key#Small Keys|Small Keys]]. These keys are necessary in order to unlock the various doors within the chamber where the Ice Arrow resides. The Ice Arrow chamber, which is located at the center of the Training Ground, is made up of a small maze of locked doors. There are two paths that Link can take to reach the Ice Arrow; however, only one of them will lead to the treasure while the other one leads to a dead-end. A total of 9 Small Keys can be found hidden in the training ground, but only 7 are required to reach the Ice Arrow ''if'' the correct path is chosen from the beginning. Many assume that if Link chooses the wrong path to get to where the Ice Arrow is, there will not be enough Small Keys to correct the mistake, rendering the Ice Arrow impossible to reach. This is a [[Myths of The Legend of Zelda Series|common misunderstanding]] since there are other well-hidden keys inside the Gerudo Training Ground that can help him correct the error.

===Obstacles and required items===
The entrance hall of the training ground has three doors that lead to different puzzles. The northern door grants access to the Ice Arrow chamber, the eastern door leads to a room where Link must defeat two [[Dinolfos]] and one [[Beamos]] under a limited time, and the western door takes the young hero to a room full of quicksand where two [[Stalfos]] have to be eliminated within the time limit. The east and west doors all lead to the rest of the obstacles, in which the majority consist of collecting Silver [[Rupee]]s under various conditions to receive a Small Key as a reward. Every time Link enters a new room, the conditions to be met will be displayed on-screen as well as mentioning whether the obstacle has to be complete under a limited time or not.

The following lists the necessary items to successfully complete the training ground and collect everything:
The following lists the necessary items to successfully complete the training ground and collect everything:


*'''[[Bow|Fairy Bow]]''' – [[Forest Temple (Ocarina of Time)|Forest Temple]]
*'''[[Fairy Bow]]''' – {{Term|OoT3D|Forest Temple|link}}
*'''[[Hammer#Megaton Hammer|Megaton Hammer]]''' – [[Fire Temple (Ocarina of Time)|Fire Temple]]
*'''[[Megaton Hammer]]''' – {{Term|OoT3D|Fire Temple|link}}
*'''[[Hookshot]]''' – [[Kakariko Village]]
*'''[[Hookshot]]''' – [[Kakariko Village]]
*'''[[Lens of Truth]]''' – [[Bottom of the Well]]
*'''[[Lens of Truth]]''' – [[Bottom of the Well]]
*'''[[Iron Boots]]''' - [[Ice Cavern (Ocarina of Time)|Ice Cavern]]
*'''[[Iron Boots]]''' - {{Term|OoT3D|Ice Cavern|link}}
*'''[[Silver Gauntlets]]''' – [[Spirit Temple]]
*'''[[Silver Gauntlets]]''' – [[Spirit Temple]]


It is worth noting that the Silver Gauntlets are not required to ultimately reach the treasure since the Small Key obtained through the gauntlets is only used if Link chooses the wrong path at the Ice Arrow chamber. In fact, it is possible to collect seven out of the nine keys with only the Hookshot, Bow, and Hammer, although the player must memorize the locations of the false wall and ceiling that would be visible with the Lens of Truth; the keys unobtainable at that time are the ones which require the Iron Boots and Silver Gauntlets. The [[Hover Boots]] are not required; if Link plays the "[[Song of Time]]" in the Lava Room, he can use the blocks created to reach the upper platform, from which he can reach all the Silver Rupees. The [[Hookshot#Longshot|Longshot]] is also not required in ''Ocarina of Time'', but in ''Master Quest'' it is required in the Lava Room and Maze Room. It is not required in either game in the Statue Room, as Link can walk to the other side of the facility to access the upper ledge, although the [[Scarecrow's Song]] in ''Ocarina of Time'' and the Hookshot posts in ''Master Quest'' provide a useful shortcut.

==''Master Quest''==
In the {{MQ}} version of the game, there are now only three keys in the dungeon. Instead of a chest, there is a crate that hides a rusty switch that, when activated, makes the chest with the [[Ice Arrow]]s appear. The objective in the {{Term|OoT3D|Boulder}} room is the same as in the original version. However, there is only one [[Iron Knuckle (Boss)|Iron Knuckle]] now. The objective for the maze room remains the same as in the original game. Boulders are no longer rolling, but there are stalactites that fall from the ceiling and a [[Wallmaster]]. The [[Hover Boots]] or Longshot are required to get a single Rupee.

===Boulder Room===
[[Wolfos]] are no longer found in the Wolfos room room. Instead, there are now [[Dinolfos]], [[Lizalfos]] and a [[Beamos]]. A Time Block must be used to go through the invisible wall. In the adjacent room to the north, past the large block that requires the [[Silver Gauntlets]], there is now a [[Stalfos]], but only one chest containing a Purple [[Rupee]]. The Statue room is exactly the same, except for the fact that the statue is now surrounded by fire, which makes the aiming more difficult, and that the [[Scarecrow's Song]] has no effect; Hookshot posts appear once the challenge is complete. The chest with the Ice Arrows is in the room in the upper floor.
The objective in this room is the same as in the original version. However, there is only one [[Iron Knuckle]] now.


===Maze Room===
Instead of using the [[Megaton Hammer]] to break some blocks in the hammer-themed room, Link is now required to fight Dinolfos and an Ironknuckle. In the lava room, there are lots of [[Red Bubble]]s now and a torch has to be lit so the fire in the platforms disappears and Link can use his [[Hover Boots]] to get all the Rupees. If Link approaches this room from the Statue Room, there is a rusty switch which raises a Hookshot post on the raised, central platform; by using this post in conjunction with the Longshot, the Hover Boots are not required. In the water room next to this one there are less Rupees and enemies such as [[Biri]], [[Bari]], [[Stinger]]s and [[Shell Blade]]s. Link is required to defeat some enemies in a limited time in the Flame Wall room. Among them is an [[Armos]] in the wall, which is no longer surrounded by fire.
Same objective as in the original game. Boulders are no longer rolling, but there are stalactites that fall from the ceiling and a [[Wallmaster]]. The [[Hover Boots]] or Longshot are required to get a single Rupee.


===Wolfos Room===
===Minor {{Plural|OoT3D|Enemy}}===
[[Wolfos]] are no longer found in this room. Instead, there are now [[Dinolfos]], [[Lizalfos]] and a [[Beamos]]. A Time Block must be used to go through the invisible wall. In the adjacent room to the north, past the large block that requires the [[Silver Gauntlets]], there is now a [[Stalfos]], but only one chest containing a Purple [[Rupee]].

===Statue Room===
;{{MQ|-}}
It is exactly the same, except for the fact that the statue is now surrounded by fire, which makes the aiming more difficult, and that the [[Scarecrow's Song]] has no effect; Hookshot posts appear once the challenge is complete. The chest with the Ice Arrows is in the room in the upper floor.

===Lava Room===
There are lots of [[Bubble#Red Bubble|Red Bubbles]] now and a torch has to be lit so the fire in the platforms disappears and Link can use his [[Hover Boots]] to get all the rupees. If Link approaches this room from the Statue Room, there is a rusty switch which raises a Hookshot post on the raised, central platform; by using this post in conjunction with the Longshot, the Hover Boots are not required.
