# Gold Skulltulas in Hyrule Castle

In the original Ocarina of Time, Hyrule Castle has **2 Gold Skulltulas** (of 100 in the game). This list is for the Nintendo Switch 2 remake and is checked against it as players confirm each one. How to get each:

- **Tree near the castle gate** — On the way up to the castle, roll into the tree that stands with a few small rocks around its base near the first guard. The Skulltula falls out; kill it and take the token.
- **Song of Storms grotto by the moat** — Near the tree beside the bend in the castle moat, play the Song of Storms to open a hidden hole. Inside the grotto, blow up the cracked wall and use the Boomerang on the Skulltula behind it. Because the Song of Storms is learned as an adult, this needs a return trip to childhood.
