Zelda Tears of the Kingdom: All Geoglyph locations, Impa and the Geoglyphs quest guide
Contents
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is structured a bit like Breath of the Wild in that there are a bunch of cutscenes to give more context to the story, but you can view them entirely out of order. Not only that, but it’s not super clear how to actually activate them all.
In this guide we’re listing how to start the Impa and the Geoglyphs quest, and listing every Geoglyph location in the beast order to view them. For everything you need to clear this quest, just read through our guide below.
Spoiler alert: you’ll need to solve this quest in order to eventually acquire the Master Sword.

How to start Impa and the Geoglyphs quest – Zelda TOTK
This quest begins at New Serenne Stable. You’ll find Cado here escorting Impa around Hyrule to investigate the Geoglyphs. Impa is stood on the stone pedestal in the middle of the field. Fix Impa’s balloon using Ultrahand, and take it into the air to get a good view of the Geoglyph.
You’ll see one of the tear-shapes near the top of the Geoglyph is filled-in. Each Geoglyph has a full tear-shape, and landing at it and interacting with it will always result in a special cutscene. You should aim to view each Geoglyph cutscene in the game, and below we’ll give you all locations, and the best order to view them in.
All Geoglyph locations and best order – Zelda TOTK
Where Am I?, Hyrule Ridge
The first Geoglyph in our list is just outside of New Serenne Stable where you start the Impa and the Geoglyphs quest.

An Unfamiliar World, Hebra
This Geoglpyh is Northwest of the Lindor’s Brow Skyview Tower.
The tear is near the top middle.

This Geoglyph is shaped like a Nintendo Switch, and is found West of Zora’s Domain.

The tear on this Geoglyph is hidden in the forest.
