If you want to get your hands on a great horse in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, then you’ll need to follow the Lucky Clover Gazette questline. One of the many quests you can get from this is “Zelda’s Golden Horse”, which tasks you with going out to find – you guessed it – a golden horse.

This is one of the best horses in the game, and it’s relatively easy to tame once you know where to find it, so we’ll take you through what to do step by step in this Zelda’s Golden Horse walkthrough.

While the horse will spawn even before you’ve activated the quest, you’ll need to head to the Snowfield Stable anyway to get it. You can find it easily with our stable locations guide.

Head directly north of the stable into the snowfield and you’ll find the horse just south of the glyph.
