Due to the secluded location of the Kaya Shrine in Assassin’s Creed Shadows, you have to travel quite a lot to reach it. Moreover, the closest viewpoint from the shrine is the Inariyama Watchtower viewpoint. Therefore, we highly recommend using the pathfinder to navigate through the forest. Place a marker near the shrine on your map and ride your horse. Keep following the white line that guides you to the Kaya Shrine.

The pathfinder should take you northwest through the forest and to the Kaya Shrine. Head to the southern side of the shrine near the foot and head up using the makeshift path and then the stone stairs. Enter the wooden arch and go between the two wooden stairs to find the first of the two smaller shrines in this location. You can also use observation to locate the shrines in case you cannot spot them.

After praying at the first smaller shrine, look right towards the east to spot the second smaller shrine in an open area surrounded by trees. Head to the wooden structure and interact with it to pay your respects. This completes the activity, and you earn your rewards.
