Zelda: Hunt for the Tears of the Kingdom – Lynel Lair Locations

In the realm of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, the fearsome Lynel stands out as one of the most formidable adversaries. Known for its remarkable speed, immense power, and legendary resilience, facing off against a Lynel is a daunting challenge even for the bravest heroes of Hyrule.

In addition to their array of traditional weapons, Lynels possess the unique ability to dismantle Zonai devices, hindering Link’s chances of escape once targeted as prey.

But that’s not all. In Tears of the Kingdom, Lynels can also don armor that must be stripped away with blunt force before they can be effectively damaged.

These creatures come in various forms, each denoted by the color of their mane – red, blue, white, and the formidable silver-maned Lynel, the most powerful of them all. Encountering the armored variants in the Depths adds an extra layer of danger to your subterranean explorations. For guidance in the dark, be sure to refer to our Lightroot locations page.

If you have the courage to face a Lynel, the rewards are well worth the effort. Apart from their high-quality weapons, Lynels drop unique items such as guts and monster parts that enhance the potency of elixirs, as well as horns that can be crafted into devastating weapon enhancements found only in Hyrule.

Whether you seek to wield this power for yourself or embark on side quests that involve hunting down these fearsome foes, here is a comprehensive guide to every Lynel location in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

There are a total of 34 Lynel locations, with 15 above ground and 19 in the Depths, including the arena.
