Hidden Areas & Secret Passages

Hallownest is filled with hidden areas and secret passages that reward exploration with valuable items and lore. From the starting area of King's Pass to the depths of the Royal Waterways, knowing where to look can uncover crucial resources and advance your journey through the game's main story.

Key hidden areas and passages include:

  • King's Pass: Head left at the start to find a small cache of Geo. After the elevated platforms, drop down and head right for another Crawlid and Geo cache. After reading the tablet, continue left past the Vengefly to find a breakable door leading to another Geo cache and a Vengefly. Top left from the elevated platforms, a corner with blue flowers hides a Lifeblood Egg, granting 2x Lifeblood Mask.
  • Tower of Love: This locked tower houses The Collector, a hidden boss. Defeating The Collector grants The Collector's Map. The key to the tower, the Love Key, is found in the Queen's Gardens.
  • Resting Grounds: Home to Ze'mer, also known as the "Grey Mourner," one of the Great Knights.

These locations often require careful observation or specific items to access, but the rewards are well worth the effort.
