This page will show you the locations for all Treasure Maps and Buried Treasure in God of War Ragnarok. There are 10 caches of Buried Treasure to be found in total, but you won’t be able to find them unless you collect the associated Treasure Map first.

All Treasure Map and Buried Treasure Locations¶

There are a total of 10 Treasure Maps / Buried Treasure locations in God of War Ragnarok, and to access most of them you will need to have the Draupnir Spear, which is acquired during the Forging Destiny main quest. We recommend getting at least that far in the main story before you set your sights on obtaining all of the buried treasures listed in the table below. We’ve included a brief description of the locations and realms involved for each.

The first location listed is the site of the Treasure Map, while the second is the site of the Buried Treasure. For example in the first case for Mining Glory, Nidavellir is the site of the Treasure Map and The Applecore is the site of the Buried Treasure. Most buried treasure can be found in the same realm where you found the map, with the two exceptions for the Demise of Dagestr Treasure and A Scar is Born Treasure.

Mining Glory Treasure¶

Mining Glory Treasure Map in Nidavellir, Svartalfheim¶

The Mining Glory Treasure Map can be found in the dwarven city of Nidavellir, in Svartalfheim. You will need the Draupnir Spear to access it, which is acquired during the Forging Destiny main quest. Once you have this, go to the northern side of Nidavellir and throw the spear into a marked point in the wall, as shown in the screenshot below. This will give you a handhold to reach the platform above, where you’ll find the treasure map on the ground.

Mining Glory Buried Treasure Location in The Applecore¶

Now that you have the Treasure Map, you can look for the treasure in The Applecore, also located in Svartalfheim. You can travel here using a Mystic Gateway, or make your way there using the ferry in the southern part of Aurvangar Wetlands.

Once you’re in The Applecore, go north from The Applecore Descent Mystic Gateway (accessed after completing the main story), and follow the path until you reach a chain where you will encounter a troll named Miklimunnr. Continue by crawling through the hole to the north, and on the other side go through the door to the northwest. From here you can edge your way across the wall to the right, following the path as you grapple over to the platform facing northwest. This path leads to a spiraling structure which you can make your way down to the very bottom, where the treasure can be found as shown in the image below.

Washed Ashore Treasure¶

Washed Ashore Treasure Map on Alberich Island, Svartalfheim¶

The Washed Ashore treasure map can be found on a wooden platform after grappling down to it from Alberich Island. This is the same place where you’ll find an Yggdrasil Rift for one of Nidhogg’s children. The map can be seen to your left after grappling over.

Washed Ashore Buried Treasure Location on Dragon Beach¶

To find the Buried Treasure for the Washed Ashore map, you need to travel to the Dragon Beach in Svartalfheim. The treasure can be found on the southern side of the beach here, beneath the skeleton of a dragon claw.

You will need to pass through some rubble puzzles to get here initially, which you can read more about on our All Collectibles in Alberich Hollow page. Note that you can only reach Alberich Hollow initially if you’ve climbed up from the Dragon Beach using the Draupnir Spear. At the end of the area you’ll find a chain which you can kick down for easier access from the beach next time.

Fruits of Industry Buried Treasure Location at Modvitnir’s Rig¶

To find the Fruits of Industry Buried Treasure you need to go to Modvitnir’s Rig in Svartalfheim. This one is easy to find near the beach here, as shown in the screenshot below.

After taking the lift into The Applecore, head southwest and then northwest until you reach a fort in the path. From here, continue left and keep to the path until you reach a chamber with some Revenants. On the southern side of this chamber you will find the mark in the wall where you can throw a Draupnir Spear, shown in the image below, then climb up to find the treasure map.

Demise of Dagestr Buried Treasure Location on the Lake of Nine, Midgard¶

The Buried Treasure for the Demise of Dagestr map can be found near the location of a loot lizard (which you may have already killed), just northwest from the Raider Fort on the Lake of Nine in Midgard. You can see the exact spot in the screenshot below.

Forgotten Tower Buried Treasure Location in The Forbidden Sands of Alfheim¶

To find the Buried Treasure for the Forgotten Tower map, you need to travel to the northern side of The Forbidden Sands. Use the Blades of Chaos to climb up a stone pillar, then smash through the vulnerable wall to find a hidden area. This is the same area where The Desert Door favor takes place, but you’ll find the buried treasure on the northwest side.

Vulture’s Gold Treasure¶

Vulture’s Gold Treasure Map Location in The Strond (or The Canyon), Alfheim¶

The Treasure Map for Vulture’s Gold can be found in an area where the Canyon meets the Strond, in southwest Alfheim.

The Treasure Map for The Giant’s Toes treasure can be found near the lore marker at the Vanir Shrine area in Vanaheim, as shown in the screenshot below. Just head a short way north from the marker to spot the map on the floor next to a slumped corpse.

The Giant’s Toes Buried Treasure Location at the River Delta, Vanaheim¶

You should be fairly familiar with the area in the River Delta of Vanaheim where you can find a Mystic Gateway next to the blacksmith shop, since you’ve probably used this gateway numerous times already. All you need to do is look behind the Mystic Gateway to find the buried treasure there.

This is a region of The Crater, which itself is a subregion of Vanaheim. You need to complete the Return of the River favor before you can access this island, since you’ll need to use the rowing boat.

A Scar is Born Buried Treasure Location in The Plains¶

The location of the Buried Treasure for the A Scar is Born treasure map is at the arched gateway leading from The Plains to The Sinkholes, in the western part of The Plains.
