'''Lantern Caverns'''{{name}} are numerous [[:Category:Mini-Dungeons|mini-dungeon]]s scattered about the Hyrulean landscape in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]''. After using a [[Bomb]] or [[Bomb Arrow]] on a cracked depression in an otherwise normal rock face, these caverns will reveal themselves. They are likely to contain [[Poe Soul]]s, [[Heart Container#Piece of Heart|Pieces of Heart]], and large amounts of [[Rupee]]s, considering their expansive size and dank innards. While [[Link]] can navigate some maze-like portions of such caverns without a light source, the growing darkness, enemies such as [[Poe]]s and [[Rat]]s that creep in the shadows, and obstacles such as large, flammable spider webs all work against Link, impeding his progress and eventually requiring the use of the [[Lantern]] for navigation.

Finally, north of [[Hyrule Field]] is a frozen cavern (blocked by a bombable wall, as well as by an ice block that can only be destroyed with the [[Ball and Chain]]) where Link must solve three block puzzles. In each case, Link has to press and hold a slacked switch (two in the case of the second puzzle) with one of the blocks. Because of the frictionless iced floor, Link has to constantly push the blocks so that one of them presses the switch. Unlike the other caverns, this one makes no use of the lantern, but the reward for its completion is the same: A Heart Piece.

===Alternate Means of Navigation===
Alternately, Wolf Link can use his senses to provide a minimum emount of light; regardless, it is still enough to get through the mini-dungeon. If he were to come across a spider web, he can easily revert to his human form and use either a bomb or the Ball and Chain to finish the job. Note that Link cannot use his bombs to light torches, making them all pointless to visit, with the exception of the one at Lake Hylia, which hosts several hundred Rupees.
