Walkthrough
- 1After exiting the portal, proceed up the steps and around to find gems, a life, and the final tree. Flame this tree to earn the 'Flame all trees' Skill Point.
- 2Continue down the path to a Spyro Challenge Portal. Refer to the 'Sunrise Spring Challenge Portals' section for guidance on this challenge, where you can obtain Egg 13, 14, and Skill Point 2.
- 3Upon exiting the challenge, you should see the 'Level Complete' sign. Exit the level to proceed to 'The Second Warning'.
- 4After the cutscene with Hunter and Bianca, proceed to Cloud Spires.
- 5You should have approximately 1200 Gems, 14 Dragon Eggs, 2 Skill Points, and 9% completion.
- 6The portal to Cloud Spires is located in the middle of Hunter's Gliding Lesson.
- 7Start on a platform with a ramp. Collect the gems, then go down the ramp. On Hard Mode, charge the shielded Rhynoc; on Easy Mode, it's replaced by a gem.
- 8Defeat the winged Rhynoc ('Flappy-Dappy' Rhynoc) by jumping over the wind and flaming it.

- 13Collect gems in the building, then charge the two shielded Rhynocs outside.
- 14Collect gems around the area, drop down the steps, and work your way up, collecting more gems. Jump onto a ledge and flame a Rhynoc.
- 15Glide over and flame another Rhynoc. To the right, jump and flame a third Rhynoc.
- 16Continue forward and find Egg 015/150 (Stephanie) down to the right, just past Zoe's location.
- 17Continue alongside the wall, collecting gems and charging the Rhynoc.
- 18Go to the other side where a large Rhynoc is located (on Hard Mode, flame it; on Easy Mode, it may be different).
- 19Go down the steps to the left for gems, then go back up and continue for more gems.
- 20Return to the beginning of this section and go to the middle. Hit the red button to take the elevator up to Moneybags.
- 21Pay Moneybags 200 Gems to Activate Bellows.
- 22Jump on the first and second bellows. On Hard Mode, charge a Rhynoc here. Charge another Rhynoc, and a larger one if on Hard Mode.
- 23Go left to meet Zoe again. She reminds you that you can press Triangle for extra glide distance.
- 24Glide to the next building, charge the two Rhynocs inside, and collect the gems.
