Now that you know its exact location, the fastest path to Toto Lake can be taken by heading west through the cliffs from Mipha Court, or from the Ihen-a Shrine. You can also reach the area easily by teleporting to the Upland Zonara Skyview Tower and then following the cliffs northeast.

On the way, don’t forget to defeat all Blue Liuzalfos you find, as their horm can be used to make and enhance the game’s many katanas.
