Skull Woods

For The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past on the Super Nintendo (SNES).

Entrance: Skeleton Forest (Dark World)

What opens it

Pits

In 4 rooms here (B1), a pit takes one heart from Link in every mail and puts him back at the spot where he came into the room. Pits in the other rooms drop him to the floor below without hurting him.

Spikes

Spike blocks are in 5 rooms here (B1, B2). Walking into one takes one heart in every mail and throws Link back. The Magic Cape keeps them from hurting him.

From the official guides

The Skull Woods dungeon is a little different from the ones so far. You can only clear it by going back and forth between the dungeon and the surface.
