Gerudo Valley and Gerudo Fortress are areas in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake that are accessed by following the path on the west side of Hyrule Field. These areas are home to six Gold Skulltulas, four Heart Pieces, and a couple of items and upgrades. Players who are going for 100% completion can learn more about the Gerudo Valley and Gerudo Fortress collectibles in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake in this guide.
Gerudo Valley & Fortress Items & Upgrades
Quiver Upgrade (Adult)
After you free the apprentices in Gerudo Fortress, go to the Horseback Archery Range in the southeast. Call Epona, mount her, and talk to the attendant to start the minigame. Hit 1,400 points to get the Quiver upgrade.
Ice Arrows (Adult)
Once you’ve completed all the adult dungeons and gotten Scarecrow Song, complete the Gerudo Proving Grounds in the southwest corner of Gerudo Fortress to get Ice Arrows. Use our Gerudo Training Grounds Walkthrough if you need help.
Gerudo Valley & Fortress Gold Skulltulas
Gold Skulltula #1 (Child)
At night, collect the Gold Skulltula under the entry bridge in Gerudo Valley.
Gold Skulltula #2 (Child)
Use the cucco by the second bridge in Gerudo Valley to glide to the land under the second bridge. Release a bottled bug into the soil mound to get a Gold Skulltula. Then plant a Magic Bean, which you can buy from the Bean Seller in Zora River.
The plant that grows from the Magic Bean is only used to travel back up to the top of the valley and doesn’t lead to a collectible.
Gold Skulltula #3 (Adult)
At night, look for a Gold Skulltula on the backside of the rock pillar in the southwest corner of Gerudo Valley.
Gold Skulltula #4 (Adult)
There is a Gold Skulltula on the wall behind the tent across from the rock pillar in Gerudo Valley.
Gold Skulltula #5 (Adult)
At night, look on the back of the northeast target in Gerudo Fortress’s Horseback Archery Range to find a Gold Skulltula. Do this after freeing the four apprentices.
Gold Skulltula #6 (Adult)
At night, go to the top-right door in Gerudo Fortress. Face the door and look up and to the right to find a Gold Skulltula. Again, it is easiest to go after this once you have dealt with the apprentices.
Gerudo Valley & Fortress Heart Pieces
Heart Piece #1 (Child)
Grab the cucco by the second bridge in Gerudo Valley. Glide to the chest left of the second bridge. It holds a Heart Piece.
Heart Piece #2 (Child)
Use the cucco to glide to the land under the second bridge in Gerudo Valley (where you found Gold Skulltula #2). Follow the path north. Climb the stairs behind the waterfall to reach a Heart Piece.
Heart Piece #3 (Adult)
After you free the apprentices in Gerudo Fortress, go to the Horseback Archery Range in the southeast. Call Epona, mount her, and talk to the attendant to start the minigame. Hit 1,000 points to get a Heart Piece.
Heart Piece #4 (Adult)
Climb to the highest point of Gerudo Fortress. Go to the far east side and play the Scarecrow Song to summon the scarecrow across the gap. Use your Longshot on the scarecrow and open the nearby chest to get a Heart Piece.
