Master the Ekochiu Shrine's 'Rise And Fall' challenge in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Learn to use Recall and Ultrahand to solve its puzzles and claim your Blessing of Light.

Hey there! Ready to tackle the Ekochiu Shrine? It's called 'Rise And Fall,' and yep, you'll be doing a lot of that with the Recall ability. Let's get you through it!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First things first, head to the south side of Minshi Woods. You'll find it north of Pico Pond and just a bit north of Woodland Stable.
  2. 2
    Once inside the shrine, you'll see a big gap. Position yourself on the square button right in the center of the room. This makes a block on a rail go up and down.
  3. 3
    Stand on the button until the block reaches the top, then quickly step off. As the block starts to come back down, stand on it and use your Recall ability. This will send you right up the rail and over the gap.
  4. 4
    Next up, you'll see a moving block and some water. When the block slides down towards you, grab it with Ultrahand before it goes over the waterfall.
  5. 5
    Position this block to the right side of the water, making sure it's level with a small platform.
  6. 6
    Quickly switch to Recall before the block drifts too far. This will let you climb onto the platform where a hidden chest is waiting. Open it up to snag a shield!
  7. 7
    Now, grab that same block again with Ultrahand and pull it towards you. Use Recall again. This gives you a chance to jump onto the block before it moves back up to the next area.
  8. 8
    For the final puzzle, drop down to the right side. You'll find a second block there. Grab it with Ultrahand and place it right in the middle of this area, on top of a small gold platform.
  9. 9
    Head back up using the ladder. Now, grab the first block you used for the second puzzle with Ultrahand and drop it from a height onto the switch. This will launch the second block you placed into the air.
  10. 10
    Here's the tricky part: use Recall on the block you just dropped onto the switch. Immediately drop down and run towards the other block that's in the air. Climb onto it! If you're fast enough, it'll launch you up, and you can just glide to the end of the shrine.
  11. 11
    Grab your Blessing of Light and you're done!
Tips
  • Don't forget to grab that hidden shield in the second puzzle area! It's a nice little bonus.
  • The timing for the final Recall jump can be a bit tight, so don't get discouraged if you don't get it on the first try. Just keep practicing!
  • Blessing of Light
  • Shield (found in a hidden chest)
