How To Unlock Sahasra Slope Skyview Tower In Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom

Ignore the irritating Billson and ascend from below to activate the Sahasra Slope Skyview Tower

Sahasra Slope Skyview Tower doesn’t give you any hint and instead tries to mislead you with ambiguous dialogues in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Unlocking a Skyview Tower, once it has been found, allows you to scan not only the surrounding ground area of Hyrule but also the corresponding areas of the skies.

In this guide, we will help you find and activate the Sahasra Slope Skyview Tower in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Our detailed step-by-step guide, accompanied by visual aid, is below.

Sahasra Slope Skyview Tower Location in Zelda: TotK

Sahasra Slope Skyview Tower is in the West Necluda region. It is to the North of Mable Ridge and South of Sahasra Slope. You can glide South from Morok Shrine to reach the Tower.

The exact coordinates for the Sahasra Slope Skyview Tower in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom are (1351, -1154, 0160).

How to Activate the Sahasra Slope Skyview Tower

Upon reaching the Sahasra Slope Skyview Tower in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, you will meet a Rito named Billson. Apparently, she is there to fix the Skyview Tower’s console, but he can’t get in. The sliding door that leads to the tower won’t budge at all.

Billson will tell you that he is tired of all the exertion, and she will only attempt to open the gate again if Link finds him some tasty mushrooms from the cave nearby. Strangely, no matter how often you talk to her, she won’t take any mushrooms from your inventory.

1. Turn back from the main door and drop down to the lower hill leading east of the Skyview Tower. You will notice a glowing Bubbul Rabbit in the area.

2. Follow it to discover Sahasra Slope Cave (1328, -1157, 0138), your gateway to the Sahasra Slope Skyview Tower in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

3. Sahasra Slope Cave is full of Blue Horriblins and breakable boulders. Use your fire arrows (apply fuse on fire plant) to bring down those irritating foes. One critical piece of advice. Don’t waste your Bomb Flowers. They are very costly (12 Poes each) and extremely rare to come by.

FYI

You can use Yunobo’s Charge ability to clear the cave of breakable boulders.

4. The cave has a lot of Rusty Claymores. Take them and fuse them with stones. Destroy the boulders by hitting them with your fused rock sword.

5. There is a hidden small room on the right side of the cave. Enter it, and you will find a Bubbul Toad hanging from the roof. Kill it to obtain a Bubbul Gem. No matter how much you explore this cave, you won’t find a tasty mushroom you can offer Billson.

6. From the area where you found the Bubbul Gem (1343, -1178, 0131), use the Ascend ability. Make sure that you are directly below the tower. This will allow you to enter the Sahasra Slope Skyview Tower in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

7. Talk to Billson and she will be surprised by your arrival time and ask you to look for anything stopping the Sahasra Slope Skyview Tower door from opening.

8. Remove wooden sticks stuck at both sides of the door. This will allow Billson to enter the Skyview Tower and fix its console.

9. Use the console to activate the Sahasra Slope Skyview Tower and use its launchpad to get airborne. While you are gliding back down, scan the area to unlock the map of West Necluda and find another Dragon Tear location in the surrounding area while being airborne.

10. Now, you can fast-travel to the Sahasra Slope Skyview Tower anytime in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and use it to reach the West Necluda Sky Archipelago.
