Willow (NES)/Nockmaar

Secret cave
After the Eborsisk has been defeated, the chest blocking the "secret" cave east of Tir Asleen castle will disappear. Willow can travel all the way to an exit in the canyon maze.

There is a chest with a shield in the cave.

Path to Nockmaar
After the Eborsisk has been defeated, the chest blocking the way in the canyon maze will disappear.

Remember that cliff faces can be defeated with the Thunder spell.

Once Willow reaches the castle, Po's magic ocarina allows to fly just below the gate of Nockmaar.

In order to enter the castle, Willow should use one spell on the guard.
