Clearing the Shadow Keep is no easy feat. First off, well done! But now you’ve found yourself wandering through the Ancient Ruins of Rauh and are getting no closer to that map icon. Here’s how to find the Rauh Ruins map inElden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree.
Unfortunately, the Rauh Ruins map doesn’t appear to be accessible from the Ancient Ruins of Rauh. You’ll have to put your foolish ambitions to rest and go all the way back to the Scadu Atlas to locate it. The path to the Rauh Ruins map takes you across poisonous ponds and through caves, but it’s worth the trip to see the Ancient Ruins in its fully charted glory.
Rauh Ruins map location inElden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree
To find the Rauh Ruins map, take a trip to the ‘Moorth Ruins’ Site of Grace. If you haven’t unlocked it, warp to ‘Highroad Cross’, the first Site of Grace you likely discovered after clearing Castle Ensis. Follow the road to the Shadow Keep but turn right when you reach the intersection. Travel southeast from there until you reach Moorth Ruins.
From Moorth Ruins, travel northeast toward the lake populated by blue gummy worms. Enter the cave on the other side and continue north across the pools of poison.
You will see another large cave on the other side. Go inside and start heading northwest. After the cave, you’ll find your next Site of Grace: ‘Ancient Ruins Base’.
Travel southwest, past the massive Golems standing guard. The Archer Golem may cause you some trouble. If so, remember to attack its ankles.
Keep traveling along this path southwest until you see a place dotted with broken pillars.
The Rauh Ruins map location is just beyond!
With the Rauh Ruins map unlocked, you’ll finally be able to see the entirety of the area. It’s massive, but not as complicated as you may have thought at first glance.
Before you return to the Ancient Ruins of Rauh, be sure to stop by the Temple Town Ruins to the southwest of the map location. It hides theTwo-Handed Sword Talisman, which is perfect for those who like to hit things with giant swords.
Temple Town Ruins is also near theTwo-Headed Turtle Talismanand theRivermouth Cave. You might not even have the time to go back to the Ancient Ruins at this rate.
