Once you’ve reached Lake Saria in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, you will have access to the Ninjis Shrine. However, there is a much more precious treasure in the mist: The Forest Dweller’s Bow.

To get the Forest Dweller’s Bow, you’re going to need to follow a specific route, other you’ll fall victim to the mist and have to start the trek again.

To find the right route, you simply need to follow the glowing Silent Shrooms. They will lead you along the correct path. They are on the ground and in the trees, so be sure to keep an eye out.

After following them for long enough, you’ll make it to Lake Saria proper, and a hollowed-out tree with a treasure chest in its trunk. Open the chest, and your new bow will be waiting for you. A wonderful homage to the iconic character from Ocarina of Time.

And that’s everything you need to get to Lake Saria and the rewards you can get for doing so. If you need more places to explore, check out how to complete the Wind Temple in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
