Kaneli’s Flight Training Walkthrough

Master Kaneli's Flight Training in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom! Learn how to navigate the hoops, beat the advanced course, and earn Rupees. Full walkthrough inside.

Alright, so you're looking to tackle Kaneli's Flight Training in Hyrule? It's a fun little challenge that'll test your paragliding skills. You'll need to head up to the Hebra Mountains, specifically to the Flight Range. Look for a small Rito building west of Rospro Pass Skyview Tower – that's where you'll find Kaneli.

Chat with Kaneli to start the side quest, and when you're ready to give the course a shot, talk to him again. He'll zip you over to the starting line on a bridge, and BAM! A countdown begins. You've got 30 seconds to get through 15 hoops.

Now, here's the trick: you can't just float above and drop straight down. Link has to be moving forward, so you'll need to constantly adjust your position to fly through each set of hoops. It might take a few tries, but the pattern is pretty straightforward. First, drop through the three hoops directly in front of you. Then, use your paraglider to gain a little altitude and fly up through the next two. Keep this up, and you'll hit those 15 hoops in no time. Just be super careful not to get too close to the rock in the middle of the course, or Link will land on it and you'll have to restart!

Once you've aced the basic course, Kaneli will give you a Red Rupee and unlock the advanced flight course. From this point on, both courses will cost you 20 Rupees to attempt, but you get your money back if you succeed. The advanced course is where the real challenge – and the bigger rewards – lie. Your goal is to reach 35 rings. The first time you manage this, you'll bag a sweet 300 Rupees! Even hitting 30 rings gets you 100 Rupees, so it's definitely worth trying.

Pro-Tip: If you're finding the advanced course a bit tough, consider equipping the Glide armor set. It can really give you the edge you need to shave off some time and make those tricky maneuvers.
