The Light Dragon flies their path clockwise, and it takes the beast around two hours to complete. As you follow the path, be aware that the dragon may fly over certain locations that require environmental protection, mostly against Cold. Make sure to bring some weaponry and supplies

Once you spot the dragon, there are several options for landing on it:

  • You can build hot air balloon from Zonai Devices
  • Jump off the sky island
  • Use the Skyview Tower to launch Link into the air near the dragon.

All of these options require you to use the paraglider at some point to get to the dragon. The air currents surrounding the dragon should help you glide towards it in case you miss the target, but you will need plenty of stamina to use the paraglider. So don't forget to bring some energy recovery meals with you.
