How To Reach The Stilled Jabul Waters Rift

Upon reaching the top,hop over to the next pondthat’s filled with fish. Avoid their bites as you navigate higher up the pond, and use your newly-learned water-block echo to help youreach new heights.
Be careful when using echoes here, asyou may fallto your doom.
Continue to move upwards, scaling the bodies of water until you come acrossa large bridge made from the stilled Lord Jabu-Jabu! Cross over his body toaccess the Jabul Ruinsjust beyond.
