TotK Treasure of the Secret Springs Riddle

The Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Treasure of the Secret Springs quest comes from your pal, Tulin, in Rito Village. However, you’ll only be able to perform this task after completing the Hebra Regional Phenomena main quest. If you do meet the requirements, talk to Tulin to hear about this riddle:

“Sturnida, Goflam’s, and Sherfin’s. Hidden treasure sleeps in the center of the three secret hot springs in the mountains. Guide the three waters to that place. When it fills, the slumbering treasure will awaken once more.”

Treasure of the Secret Springs and Vah Medoh Divine Helm Location in TotK

The place that we’re looking for is the North Biron Snowshelf Cave. As shown on the map above, it’s in the center of the three hot springs in Hebra. The coordinates are: -3959, 3248, 0238.

However, because of the snow and freezing temperatures, you need to wear cold resistance gear, or eat cold resistance food. In any case, upon arriving at the area, you’ll see a large block of ice. I suggest using a Flame Emitter instead of a Fire Fruit to melt the ice block. I prefer the Flame Emitter since a steady stream of fire will do the trick, as opposed to wasting several materials. Once the ice block is gone, you’ll notice a tunnel entrance.

Drop down the pit to spot an updraft, which will let you glide back up again. While gliding, aim with your bow to slow down time. This will let you attach Bomb Flowers to your arrows. The goal now is to destroy three boulders that are blocking passageways. A couple of these simply have Frost Keese enemies, but the others will cause water to flow.

Once you’ve done that, the statue will move to reveal a hidden chest. This is how you complete the Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Treasure of the Secret Springs riddle.
