How To Reach The Hermit Village

Elden Ring‘s expansive world is filled with wondrous regions and fantastical locations, most of which are pretty easy to get to. However, there are a number of locations that require a bit of work to gain access to. This is the case for locations such as the Moonlight Altar, an area you will reach whilst completing Ranni’s quest line. The same can be said for Hermit Village, a rather mysterious and hidden location.

Find Hermit Village In Elden Ring

You can find Hermit Village in the southwest of Volcano Manor in Mt. Gelmir, but you need to take a long path to reach this village.

There are two ways to get to the Hermit Village. The easiest way is to find the Medallion halves for the Grand Lift of Dectus and take a risk-free path towards the village. If you haven’t activated the Grand Lift of Dectus, you should take the second path to Hermit Village, which includes a boss fight.

We strongly recommend you collect the Medallion halves from Fort Farogh and Fort Haight and take the Altus Plateau path, as it’s much easier and faster. At least you won’t face any bosses on your way to collect the Medallion halves. Once you activate the lift and reach Altus Plateau, find the Erdtree-Gazing Hill Site of Grace north of the lift and take the red path shown in the image above until you reach the Blue circle, which is Hermit Village. Keep in mind that you will come across two bosses on your way to the village, but you can ignore them and continue your path.
