Temple of Fire in Ocarina of Time
This guide to the Fire Temple in Ocarina of Time covers Part 8 of the walkthrough 100%: rescuing nine Gorons, collecting the eight Small Keys, obtaining the Megaton Hammer, and defeating Volvagia. The walkthrough begins with Adult Link in Goron City and ends at the crater, with the Gift of Double Magic.
How to get to the Fire Temple in Ocarina of Time
In Goron City, collect Gold Skulltula 51 and obtain the Goron Tunic. To get this tunic, stop the small Goron rolling around the city and talk to him. His heat resistance allows you to explore Death Mountain Crater and enter the temple without suffering from the extreme temperatures.
Next, access the crater from Darunia's old chamber. Near the broken bridge, you'll find Sheik, who will teach you the Bolero of Fire . This melody allows you to return to the dungeon entrance.
Inside the temple, the objective is to find Darunia and free his companions, imprisoned on Ganondorf's orders. The journey combines collecting keys with rescuing the Gorons until the Great Key is obtained, granting access to the boss.
First six gorons, map and compass
The first half of the temple contains Small Keys 01–06 and the first six Gorons. Progress involves switching keys, traversing lava chambers, passing through locked doors, and navigating corridors at varying heights that lead to the upper levels.
The collection order places the Dungeon Map after the third key and the Compass after the fourth . Gold Skulltulas 52, 53, 54, and 55 are also found in this section. Following these are a chest containing 90 rupees and the seventh Goron, along with Small Key 07.
Megaton Hammer and access to the Great Key
After rescuing the seventh Goron, the next important item is the Megaton Hammer . It's used to press rusted switches, remove stone obstacles, and open new paths within the dungeon.
With the hammer obtained, the journey continues with the eighth Goron and the Small Key 08. Next, the Gold Skulltula 56 and a chest containing a Red Rupee are collected. Finally, rescuing the ninth Goron leads to the Big Key , necessary to enter Volvagia's chamber.
The six Golden Skulltulas in this part
The Gold Skulltulas in this installment cover numbers 51–56 of the playthrough. The first one is collected before entering the dungeon; the other five are located in the Fire Temple.
- 51: Goron City, at the beginning of this part.
- 52: between the second and third Small Key.
- 53: after the map and before the fourth key.
- 54 and 55: after the sixth key and before the seventh rescue.
- 56: after obtaining the Megaton Hammer and rescuing the eighth goron.
How to defeat Volvagia with the Megaton Hammer
In the fight against Volvagia, observe the holes in the platform. When the boss emerges from the lava, strike its head with the Megaton Hammer . Use the resulting stun to attack it with your sword.
When it takes flight, avoid the flames and falling rocks on the sand. Alternate these moments of evasion with attacks when it resurfaces. Defeating it will grant you Heart Container 05 and advance the Fire Sage's story.
Obtain the Gift of Double Magic after the temple
Part 8 doesn't end with Volvagia. After the battle, return to Death Mountain Crater and visit the Great Fairy to receive the Gift of Double Magic. This upgrade increases your maximum magic capacity.

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 100% Walkthrough Part 8 – Fire Temple
Part 8 of the 100% Walkthrough of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time for Nintendo Switch 2. In this installment, we explore Goron City, learn the Fire Bolero, complete the Fire Temple, and defeat Volvagia. We find Gold Skulltulas 51–56, rescue the nine Gorons, obtain eight Small Keys, the Megaton Hammer, the Big Key, and Heart Container 05. Upon completion, we obtain the Double Magic upgrade.
We begin as Adult Link in Goron City with the Gold Skulltula 51 and the Goron Tunic. To obtain this heat-resistant tunic, we must stop the small Goron rolling around the city and speak to him. The Goron Tunic allows us to explore Death Mountain Crater and enter the Fire Temple without suffering from the extreme temperatures.
From Darunia's former chamber, we access the crater. Near the broken bridge, we find Sheik, who teaches us the Bolero of Fire, a melody that allows us to return to the dungeon entrance. We then enter the Fire Temple to find Darunia and rescue his companions, imprisoned on Ganondorf's orders.
During the first half of the temple, we collected Small Keys 01–06 while freeing the first Gorons. We also found Gold Skulltulas 52, 53, 54, and 55, the Dungeon Map, the Compass, and a chest containing rupees. Switches, lava rooms, locked doors, and multi-level corridors are essential for progressing and reaching the upper floors.
The main reward in this dungeon is the Megaton Hammer. With it, we can press rusted switches, remove stone obstacles, and open new paths. After obtaining it, we free the eighth Goron, collect Small Key 08, and find Gold Skulltula 56. Finally, we reach the ninth Goron and claim the Big Key, necessary to access the boss chamber.
Volvagia is the boss of the Fire Temple. To defeat him, we must observe the holes in the platform and strike his head with the Megaton Hammer when he emerges from the lava. While he is stunned, we attack with the sword; when he flies, we avoid the flames and rocks that fall onto the arena. After defeating him, we receive Heart Container 05 and advance in the Fire Sage's story.
Finally, we return to Death Mountain Crater to visit the Great Fairy and obtain the Gift of Double Magic, which increases your maximum magic capacity. Use the chapters to locate each key, Goron, Gold Skulltula, and reward without getting lost in the temple.
