Discover all Heart Piece locations in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
This guide covers three original Ocarina of Time Heart Piece spots, while Switch 2 Remake locations differ.
Spoiler reminder: The route notes below mention the Child and Adult timeline.
Background: The Same Three Heart Pieces Are Version-Specific
The Switch 2 Remake places three Heart Pieces in locations that are completely different from those found in the original and 3DS versions of Ocarina of Time. The guide below describes the original version of Ocarina, so players of the Switch 2 Remake should treat these spots as old-version information rather than direct current locations.
Original Version Location 1: Hyrule Field - Lake Hylia Entrance Hole
This Heart Piece is available in the Child and Adult timeline. The requirements are the Stone of Agony, 10 Rupees, and Bombs or the Song of Storms.
After acquiring the Stone of Agony, go to the Lake Hylia entrance in Hyrule Field. Run around the area enclosed by four fences until the Stone of Agony points out a hole. Use Bombs or the Song of Storms to reveal the opening, go inside, and buy the Heart Piece from the Business Scrub for 10 Rupees.
Original Version Location 2: Ice Cavern - Red Ice
This Heart Piece is tied to the Adult timeline and requires a Bottle of Blue Fire.
Move through the Ice Cavern until reaching the room with the spinning blade. Take the right-hand passageway, using Blue Fire to remove red ice along the route. The path leads to a room with another blue fire and a Heart Piece trapped inside red ice. Use Blue Fire from an empty bottle to clear the ice around the Heart Piece.
This is the only Heart Piece in Ocarina of Time that is found in a dungeon.
Original Version Location 3: Hyrule Field - Northwest Tree Hole
This Heart Piece is also tied to the Adult timeline. The listed requirements are the Stone of Agony, Bombs, Iron Boots, and the Zora Tunic.
In the north-western corner of Hyrule Field, not far from Lon Lon Ranch, a lone tree hides a hole at its base. The Stone of Agony identifies the spot. Use Bombs or the Song of Storms to open the hole.
Once inside, wear the Iron Boots and drop to the bottom of the pond to collect the Heart Piece. As with the previous Heart Piece, the Zora Tunic is not technically required, but it makes retrieval easier.
What Players Should Take From This
For the original version of Ocarina, these three Heart Piece routes are the ones to follow. In the Switch 2 Remake, these three locations are completely different, so the original-version guide does not describe the new placement.
