Quick Links
Returning fans ofBreath of the Wildwill notice that the Rito Elder, Kaneli, is nowhere to be seen inTears of the Kingdom’s Rito Village. Although Teba has taken on the mantle as Rito Elder, players can still find Kaneli if they visit the Flight Range. Speaking to him unlocks the side quest and minigame: Kaneli’s Flight Training.
This side quest is used for farming money, but it’s also a great way for newTears of the Kingdomplayers to try gliding and diving. Players will be expected to use the paraglider and diving mechanic throughout theirTotKjourney. Thus, the Flight Range/Kaneli’s Flight Training is a safe area for practicing.

Where is Kaneli? (Where is the Flight Range?)
Before players can take on the “Kaneli’s Flight Training” side quest, they’ll need to complete the main quest “Tulin of Rito Village.” Once Link and Tulin defeat Colgera, players can head to theFlight Range (-3793, 2317, 0161). The best way of reaching the Flight Range is toleave fromRospro Pass Skyview Tower(-3684, 2343, 0233). However, players can alsoglide north from Rito Villageto the Flight Range as well.
Players will needcold-resistant armoror aChilly Elixirbefore attempting this side quest. Without it, the cold weather will slowly chip away at Link’s health. Players can get theSnowquill SetfromRito Village.
Speak to Kaneli, and he’ll volunteer Link for a flight training exercise. This side quest can be completed at any time, so there’s no rush to get it done.
How to Complete Kaneli’s Flight Training (Beginner Course)
Link will have30 secondsto go through15 ringsaround the Flight Range. There are a total of20 rings, but players onlyneed 15to pass. Fortunately,all the rings are surrounding the Flight Range’s center pillar.
The easiest way to complete this side quest is torise above the stacked rings, thendivethrough them and repeating this process until Link has gone through (at least) 15 of them.
If Link manages to succeed, Kaneli will give him50 Rupeesas a reward. He will also allow Link to take an “Advanced Course.” Once “Kaneli’s Flight Training” is completed, players can return as many times as they want. However, doing so willcost Link 20 Rupees per try.

Kaneli’s Flight Training: Advanced Course
There isn’t another side quest for the Flight Training’s Advanced Course, so there’s no reason to do it unless players need some more Rupees. Unlike the Beginner Course, the Advanced Course will give Link50 secondsto fly through35 Rings. He’ll also have to pay the 20 Rupee fee.
The rings in the Advanced Course will bescattered around the Flight Rangewith somehidden under the pillars. They’re also not stacked this time, meaning Link will have to besteeredwhile diving.
While it’s notrequired, it’s highly recommended to get theWingsuit/Glide Armorbefore attempting the Advanced Course. This will make it much easier to control Link while he’s free-falling. Increase the Wingsuit Set to level 2, and Linkwon’t take damage if he crash lands.
It’s also a good idea to have an extra Stamina Bar, too.
The rings may be scattered this time, but players will find it easier to complete if theygo clockwise:
Kaneli’sAdvanced Course rewardwill vary based on Link’s performance:
- The 300 Rupee reward is locked to completing the Advanced Course forthe first time. Any future attempts, Link will get100 Rupeesinstead of 300 for going through all rings.
