The downside is that before Hestu appears here, you’ll first need make it through a few different trials - starting with finding your way through the Lost Woods and ending with a fight against Phantom Ganon. The Korok Forest is by far the best place to head to if you want Hestu to stay in a fixed location. If you started making progress on the main questline and skipped Lindor’s Brow, the first place Hestu appears will likely be Lookout Landing (more about this in the third section below). By that point, I hadn’t even reached any of the four main regions following the main quest. I came across Hestu during my first few hours exploring Hyrule. If you have at least two more Korok Seeds on you, he’ll accept them for an additional slot.Īfter you’re done giving him Korok Seeds, Hestu will mention he’s thinking of parting ways to the east, as he’s looking for a “place to relax” somewhere around there.

Then, feel free to choose whichever pouch slot you want between weapons, shields, and bows.

Once you find Hestu at Lindor’s Brow, he will ask for one Korok Seed as an introduction. But remember, this won’t be the last time you’ll have to track him down. Meeting him will kickstart the “Hestu’s Concerns” side adventure, which we’ll be detailing below. The first Hestu location is northwest of Lookout Landing at the coordinates (-1714, 1067, 0202), following the main road that leads to Lindor’s Brow Skyview Tower. Below are the three Hestu locations we’ve found in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and how we got to them.īut bear in mind, Hestu moves around a fair bit and the order in which he appears in certain locations seems to change based on how you personally play through the game - and where you are in terms of progressing through the main story.

The character is still as elusive as he was in Zelda: Breath of the Wild, and unless you know where to head next, you’ll spend a long time unable to increase your inventory.ĭon’t fret, though, as we’ll be pointing out all the ways to find him so you can start cashing in your hard-earned Korok Seeds.

Finding Hestu’s locations in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom can be a tough task.
