The Skyview Temple, true to its location, has a forest motif. It is a network of gloomy passages in which luminescent plants and fungi grow. Several parts of its internal architecture are in ruins, and the last room even houses a large chasm Link crosses with the help of vines he can untie with the help of the Slingshot. The Dungeon only has one floor, but it makes up for it with the huge size of its rooms, as well as the large variety of enemies that inhabit the temple.

The temple often requires Link to hit Crystal Switches with the Slingshot to change the water level; raising the water levels will allow the hero to access new passageways, which lead deeper into the Dungeon. Later, after defeating a [[Stalfos]] mini-boss, Link will be rewarded with the Beetle, a mechanical insect-shaped tool he can pilot towards inaccessible spots, which allows him to hit certain Crystal Switches he could not before, in turn allowing him to open doors that lead to new rooms or even collect a [[Piece of Heart]]. It also grants him the ability to cut certain ropes and webs around the Temple, creating paths and shortcuts, making crates fall to the ground, and making Skulltulas directly vulnerable to terrestrial attacks.

The boss of the Temple is [[Ghirahim]], who is defeated by avoiding striking his guard with Link's sword, or by countering one of his attacks. Upon learning that Zelda's presence from the temple has faded, the Demon Lord teleports away, leaving behind a [[Heart Container]] for Link to collect.<ref>{{Cite|I fear I spent far too long teasing and toying with you. The girl's presence has all but faded from this place, which means there's no reason to linger here. Good-bye, sky child. Run and play this time. Get in my way again, though, and you're dead.|Ghirahim|SS}}</ref>
