While Kakariko Village itself won't be drastically different from before, the village has been impacted by the Upheaval. Ruins from the skies have crashed down around the village; Impa's granddaughter, Paya, has taken over as Chief of Kakariko Village; and you will uncover even more secrets when you reach the main quest that involves the village, "Secret of the Ring Ruins."

How To Get To Kakariko Village

Located in the West Necluda region, Kakariko Village can be approached from any direction, depending on where you are in your adventures. If you are starting from Lookout Landing, your first stop upon reaching the Surface, you will need to travel west on the path out of the settlement.

You can follow the roads that take you over the Hylia River, and continuing on the roads leading you southeast will bring you right to Kakariko Village's doorstep. Along the way, you can make a slight detour to activate the Sahasra Slope Skyview Tower in order to uncover the West Necluda portion of your map.

Upon reaching the village, make sure to complete the local Makasura Shrine so you will have an easy fast travel point for whenever you need to return.

All Kakariko Village Side Quests

Kakariko Village has adapted to the new ruins around them, and the phenomena has even attracted tourists to the area. Between Kakariko's citizens and visiting tourists, there are a few side quests that see you helping the local community.

Here are all the Kakariko Village side quests, with who to talk to in order to pick it up, and a short description:

Quest Name

Quest Giver

Where To Start

Description

"Gloom-Borne Illness"

Claree

Enchanted, the armor shop

Claree and Lasli's grandmother is sick from the gloom, so they have to raise prices in the shop for now.

"A Trip Through History"

Bugut

Kakariko Village's main paths

Bugut is a tourist interested in the Ring Ruins, and the ancient writings found within. He's scared of heights, though, and can't go look himself.

"Out of the Inn"

Dai

Shuteye Inn

Dai has been roped into watching over the inn while Ollie, the inn's owner, tidies up the survey-team tents around the Ring Ruins. Ollie has not returned in a while, though.

"Codgers' Quarrel"

Trissa

High Spirits Produce, the grocery store

The two men that stock Trissa's store have left to drive off monsters from the local ruins, but haven't returned.

"Follow the Cuckoos"

Trissa

High Spirits Produce, the grocery store

After completing "Codgers' Quarrel," Trissa notices the local cuckoos have been running off every morning, but she needs them to supply Bird Egg in her store.

Completing all the quests in the area will give you some extra materials, ingredients, and other benefits.

For example, if you ever want to buy the Stealth Set or Radiant Set that are sold in the Enchanted armor shop, completing "Gloom-Borne Illness" is necessary to bring the prices down.

Additional Quests In Kakariko Village

The Ring Garland

While there is no official quest tied to Koko, the woman who sells ring garlands for five Rupees in Kakariko Village, there is at least one use for such an item. This involves bringing the ring garland all the way to Gerudo Town, which means you will have to carry the garland or fuse it to your shield.

If you make your way to the Gerudo Shelter in the evening, you'll be able to find a class being taught by Ashai. With your ring-garland-shield equipped, listening in on the class will open up new lines of dialogue with the character Deltan.

The ring garland doesn't have an official quest or reward — it just adds even more depth to the world of Hyrule and its inhabitants.

Messages From An Ancient Era

The next quest that will take you to Kakariko Village is "Messages From An Ancient Era." You first pick up this quest in Lookout Landing from an archaeologist named Wortsworth. From there, he and his team then travel to Kakariko Village.

This quest sees you finding and photographing various stone tablets around the map. To make progress with "Messages from an Ancient Era," you will have to continuously return to Kakariko Village to talk to Wortsworth.
