 Hidden Grottos |
These caves are hidden all around Hyrule. The only way in is to dig while in Wolf form. There is normally very little indication as to the location of most of them.
Most contain a large amount of rupees, while other contain heart pieces. Still others contain nothing at all.
Lets take a closer look at the locations and secrets of the hidden hide-a-ways.
Note: to get out of a grotto, climb on the rock with sun shining on it.
