Lookout Landing is one of the first areas you’ll want to explore in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom but it can take a while to get there so if you want to know exactly where it is in the game, we’ve got you covered.

If you’re looking to get some structure in your Tears of the Kingdom playthrough and want to start unlocking the map, the best place to get to is Lookout Landing. This a small hub area with familiar faces that lets you activate the Skyview Towers, which are used to reveal the different regions of Hyrule on your Purah Pad.

It also has shops, beds, weapons, and side quests for you to pick up, making it the ideal position to start your exploration of the game‘s open world.

So, here’s exactly how to get to Lookout Landing in Tears of the Kingdom

Lookout Landing Skyview Tower
To get to Lookout Landing, head towards the tower underneath the floating castle.

Where is Lookout Landing?

When you first drop down into Hyrule, you’ll be a fair way away from Lookout Landing. It’s positioned just before Hyrule Castle, which is now floating in the air, so if you head toward the center of the map, you should be able to see it.

To speed up your journey, you can try building a vehicle to get there faster. If you face the castle and climb out of the lake you landed in and then go down the hill, you’ll find a convenient box of tools and wheels that you can use to build a car.

They aren’t quite as sophisticated as the Zonai gliders, but if you’ve got the hang of Ultrahand and have a fan handy, you should be on your way in no time.

As you approach the forest before the castle, it can be easy to get lost. However, there are some researchers outside an easily-located shrine in Hyrule Field who can point you in the right direction. Check-in with them to get the Lookout Landing Skyview Tower highlighted.

That’s everything you need to know about where Lookout Landing is in Tears of the Kingdom! For more content on the game, check out our guides below:
