How to unlock fast travel in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom

In order to use fast travel in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom, you will need to unlock it. Fortunately, this is pretty easy to do. You just have to progress through the first main story quests. In the starting location, you will find a couple of important points of interest.

You will need to visit and complete your first three Shrines, which are special locations with trials. After that, the main quest will ask you to go to the Temple of Time. There you will encounter a closed door that you will not be able to open. This is the moment when you learn about the fourth Shrine and get the fast travel ability.

From there, you can head back to this point at any stage. However, you'll still need to unlock further fast travel points manually. Interacting with shrines across Hyrule will unlock its fast travel point, even without completing the shrine itself. Some key areas like Lookout Landing also come with pre-determined fast travel points, so you can always head back with ease.

The main story quest will give you a brief explanation of how to fast travel, and we will be glad if this guide helps you unlock this feature. Use it to explore the world of Hyrule and all its mysteries!
