Shadow of the Colossus Hints
How do I climb to the colossus's forehead?
1 of 3: Make the colossus kneel and then clamber your way up!
2 of 3: Once the colossus is kneeling, you can jump right up onto his back fur, or you can jump off and look for a new spot to climb (on his thighs, for example).
3 of 3: Part of the way up, you can rest briefly on the platforms attached to his back, if you hold R1 while you're standing on them.
