In the middle of Tears of the Kingdom's Gerudo Desert lies an oasis, around which a bazaar was built. This serves as a useful rest stop for travelers who need a break while on their way to or from Gerudo Town, the region's main settlement.

Mayatat Shrine is found on the edge of Kara Kara Bazaar and serves as an incredibly useful fast travel point for those who wish to travel there easily, whether for shopping, quests, or just to get around the desert. Its puzzle involves Sleds, so be prepared for some physics-based action and sandy slopes.

How To Complete Mayatat Shrine: A Sliding Device

Tears of the Kingdom - Mayatat Shrine - Trio of sleds

You will be confronted with a very large room when you take your first steps into this shrine. You'll notice that every few moments, a trio of Sleds drops down from the high ledge to the right. The Sleds slide swiftly down into the pit at the other end of the room.

Tears of the Kingdom - Mayatat Shrine - Using Recall to ride a Sled backwards

Drop down to the slope and use Recall on one of the Sleds when it reaches you. Hop on top of it and use it to get up to the next level.

The next area is actually the final area, but it is very large. The sands here are shifting constantly, and you'll sink into them if you try to walk across to the exit. Instead. You must create a vehicle.

Tears of the Kingdom - Mayatat Shrine - A Sled with a Steering Stick

Firstly, grab the Sled and the Steering Stick from the corner of the shrine, and Attach the latter to the front of the former. Then, use this Sled to serve as a temporary platform between the more permanent platforms in the sand, letting you leap over to the two Fans.

Now, Attach the two Fans to the back of the Sled to give it some propulsion. Place the vehicle in the sand and use the Steering Stick to drive - you'll basically be sailing around the sand.

Carefully manoeuvre the vehicle to the left, to the left side of the tall platform. You'll have to be careful that you don't accidentally fly off the edge - just press B to deactivate the Fans if you're getting too close to the edge; it'll halt your momentum brilliantly.

Climb the steps here to find a chest with ten Arrows in it.

If, for some reason, you managed to get over here, but you lost your vehicle on the way, you can glide over to the collection of materials across the gap behind the chest and create a new one to get you to the exit.
