While there are five Ring Ruins in total within the village, you only need to visit four as the fifth has been forbidden by Princess Zelda and thus is inaccessible. Check out the table below to learn where to find the four Ring Ruins in Kakariko Village alongside their map coordinates:
| Coordinates | Ring Ruins Map Location |
| 1634, -1194, 0216 | (1) Southwest of Kakariko Village, location of Codgers' Quarrel quest |
| 1737, -0901, 0199 | (2) Behind and above the main building in Kakariko Village, will need to climb |
| 1900, -0911, 0199 | (3) To the east of the forbidden Ring Ruins, on a hill |
| 1939, -1080, 0166 | (4) Southeast of Kakariko Village, to the east of the Zonai dispenser |
