Skyview Temple
The Skyview Temple, sometimes referred to in-game as the Forest Temple, is a temple in Skyward Sword. Its miniboss is a Stalfos, and the main item obtained is the Template:It.
Entrance to the Temple
To reach the Skyview Temple, Link must make his way to the Deep Woods area during his search for Zelda. After aiding Machi, The Elder, and the other Kikwis, Link will be given the Slingshot. He can use the Slingshot to open the path to the Skyview Temple. To open the door to the Skyview Temple, Link must hit a Crystal Switch above the entrance by using his Slingshot. Link then walks inside.
The Skyview Temple often requires Link to hit Crystal Switches with the Slingshot to change the water level; raising said water will allow for further progression. Later, after defeating a Stalfos minboss, Link will be rewarded with the Beetle, which allows him to hit certain switches he could not before, allowing him to open doors or collect a Piece of Heart. It also grants him the ability cut certain ropes around the Temple, making crates fall to the ground.
The boss of the Temple is Ghirahim, who is defeated by avoiding Ghirahim's guard being struck by Link's sword, or by countering one of Ghirahim's attacks. After Link damages Ghirahim enough and Zelda leaves the Temple, Ghirahim teleports away, leaving a Heart Container for Link to collect.
Link may then leave the temple to head to the Sacred Ground in the hopes that Zelda is there, but she is not. Link will hit the ancient symbol with a Skyward Strike to obtain the Ruby-colored Stone Tablet before automatically leaving.
