Follow this Octopath Traveler walkthrough for the 'Onward to Bolderfall' chapter, covering West S'warkii Trail and North Bolderfall Pass, including item locations and side quest details.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Exit S'warkii and head north to the save point. To your northwest, find a chest containing an Herb of Awakening.
  2. 2
    West of the chest, locate the NPC Roving Naturalist. Scrutinize them to obtain the information 'Where the Giant Boar Roams' for the 'Rite of Passage' Side Story.
  3. 3
    Return to S'warkii and speak to the NPC there with the information to complete the Side Story.
  4. 4
    From the Roving Naturalist's location, head south, hugging the right wall, to find a path leading to a chest with a Slippery Nut.
  5. 5
    Continue to the West S'warkii Trail signpost. Take the short eastern path for a chest containing an Inspiriting Plum.
  6. 6
    Head west from the signpost to another split. The north path leads out of your current league. To your left, in a hidden alcove, find a chest with an Olive of Life.
  7. 7
    Return to the signpost and head south to a save point. Open the chest just north of it for a Herb of Light.
  8. 8
    Follow the trail south of the save point as it curves east, then west, and finally southwest. Ignore the hidden eastern path leading to the Path of Beasts (Danger Level 15).
  9. 9
    Continue southwest to North Bolderfall Pass.
  10. 10
    Upon entering North Bolderfall Pass, you'll find a save point. A bridge to the west leads to Clearbrook, but proceed south.
  11. 11
    At the fork, take the southern path for a chest containing a Healing Grape.
  12. 12
    Take the other path (eastward) from the split to arrive at Bolderfall.
