- 2Speak with Grapp, a Goron relaxing in the water at Goron Hot Springs. He will reveal that Simmerstone Springs is located inside Gorko Tunnel, but the path is blocked by rocks.
- 3Equip heat-resistant armor or consume heat-resistant food. Do not use Bomb Flowers to break the rocks, as they will explode prematurely in the high-temperature area.
