Woods of Winter

The Woods of Winter is a region in the realm of Holodrum in The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons. It lies directly east of Eyeglass Lake, and south of the Sunken City. Thanks to the situation in Holodrum, the reigning season in the Woods is actually autumn, and Link needs the Rod of Seasons to restore winter to the forest; once winter returns, the many small lakes freeze over and the territory becomes much easier to cross.

It is in these woods that Link first meets Rosa, and finds a portal leading to Subrosia. It is also here that he finds the second dungeon, Snake's Remains, the entrance to which becomes blocked once he uses the Rod of Seasons to bring back winter; Link has to acquire the shovel in order to reach the dungeon. The woods contain a Mystery Seed tree and a Fairy Fountain.
