All Korok Seed locations in The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom's first biome, the Great Sky Island
There are a total of 19 Korok Seeds that you can find in the starting location of The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom. You often only get a single Korok Seed after completing an environmental puzzle or stumbling upon these tiny, cute seedlings. However, there are also situations when you will get two Korok Seeds when you help a lost pair of Koroks to reunite with each other.
Here's a list of all the 19 Korok Seed locations in the Great Sky Island in The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom:
- The first Korok Seed in The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom can be found inside the Room of Awakening at (0346, -1755, 2280). However, it is to be noted that you can only grab this Korok Seed after leaving the Greak Sky Island. You can fast-travel to the location once you leave the floating island to grab the Korok Seed.
- The second Korok Seed is above the Nachoyah Shrine, inside a pond with a Korok-shaped leaf floating on its surface.
- The third Korok Seed is found towards the western part of the island at (0231, -1644, 1406). Here you will find the seed covered with dried leaves inside a hollowed tree trunk.
- The fourth Korok Seed can be found under a rock, oddly placed on a large tree at (0025, -1557, 1452).
- The fifth and sixth Korok Seeds are at (0022, -1258, 1415). Here, you will find one Korok with a backpack who requests you to unite it with its lost friend on a small island east of your location. Fortunately, you can get to the second Korok by simply fusing a nearby metal hook to the Korok with the backpack and sending it down the rails. You need to interact with the two Koroks to get both seeds.
- The seventh Korok Seed can be found on the small island towards the north of the Room of Awakening.
- The eighth Korok Seed can be found towards the northeast of the Ukouh Shrine, beside a moving cluster of leaves.
- The ninth Korok Seed can be found under the Temple of Time, where you will find an oddly marked wooden circle. Interacting with it will reveal the hidden Korok.
- The tenth Korok Seed can be found in the ruins section of the island. You must participate in a chasing mini-game to unlock the hidden Korok.
- The eleventh Korok Seed can be found on a tree stump near the Gutanbac Shrine. You must complete a short stine puzzle to reveal the hidden Korok.
- The twelfth Korok Seed can be found at (0628, -1524, 1443), where you will find a strange-looking metal wall with missing pieces that you can easily attach to it using Link's Ultrahand and Fuse abilities. Completing the metal structure will reveal the hidden Korok.
- The thirteenth Korok Seed can be found at (0625, -1654, 1505), where you will find a giant dandelion. To reveal the hidden Korok, you need to attack the dandelion, and as its seeds scatter and fly away, press "A" as fast as you can to grab the hidden Korok Seed.
- The fourteenth Korok Seed can be found towards the east of the Sky Island, where you will again find another metal wall and must complete it using Link's Ultrahand abilities to reveal the hidden Korok.
- The fifteenth Korok Seed can be found at (0452, -1540, 1358). You can access this location by breaking the cracked rocks on the ground. To destroy the rocks, you can shoot them with explosive arrows or hit them with a heavy or plunging attack. Crushing the stones will reveal the hidden Korok.
- The sixteenth Korok can be found near the body of water you encounter when you first leave the Room of Awakening. The Korok can be found hidden among the lilypads in the water.
- The seventeenth Korok can be found at (0420, -1498, 1498), where you will encounter another ring of stones near a tree. Completing the stone ring will reveal the hidden Korok and reward you with a Korok Seed.
- The eighteenth and nineteenth Korok is at (0471, -1692, 1442). To get the Korok Seeds, you only need to talk to the two Koroks here, put them inside the nearby mine cart, and head to the small island in the south with them. Once you reach your destination, talk to the Koroks again to get the last two Korok Seeds in the Great Sky Island region.
There are hundreds of Koroks and Korok Seeds for you to find in The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom, with each Korok having its own short story to tell, making hunting these cute little seedlings even more engaging.
