Mayak Shrine solution in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom

To solve the Mayak Shrine, you'll first need to use the rising platform to fire yourself upwards. Now, land up top, and look at the large ball ahead of you.

Using Ultrahand, place the ball on the track. Quickly jump down to the orange switch, and hit it at the right time to catch the ball. This will open the next room.

This final room has two rising platforms that will fire you up high, to another ball.

Once again, place the ball on the track. Immediately run and throw yourself off the edge. Dive down to the orange switch, and strike it so that the sliding platform catches the ball. If you're struggling with the timing, you can use Recall to stop the ball from falling, or to reverse it a bit.

Well done on completing the Mayak Shrine! If you want to try another one out, check out our Kyokugon Shrine solution guide. However, if you want a complete change of pace and outfit, take a look at our Phantom Armor set locations.
