Royal Valley is a region in The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap. Its main feature is a cemetery which [Link]] visits to find the grave of Hyrule's King Gustaf. Located in the north-east of the game's map, the valley is bordered by Hyrule Castle Garden and North Hyrule Field to the east, Trilby Highlands to the south, and Mount Crenel to the west. Royal Valley receives no natural light and as a result is in near perpetual darkness, broken only by lanterns and torches.

The only way into Royal Valley is a path from North Hyrule Field. This leads to the southern end of the valley, the only part in which it possible to see without the Flame Lantern. The Great Dragonfly Fairy, who grants Link a bigger quiver, can be found in a cave here. The path through this section is plagued by Ghinis and Takkuris. There is another route leading south to Trilby Highlands, but this stops at a cliff edge, so it can only be taken when leaving Royal Valley.

To the north of this is a maze, with a Ghini guarding each junction; if anyone takes a wrong turn here they eventually end up back at the entrance. Fortunately, the maze is signposted, making it possible to find the way through to the northernmost section of the valley, where the cemetery is found.

More Ghinis and Takkuris lurk around the entrance to the graveyard. In the east of this section, just outside the cemetery fence, is a small house occupied by Dampé, the gravekeeper.
