Elden Ring has some extensive areas that offer great rewards for exploring. One such area is West Liurnia, which is a bit tricky to find. This mountainous region holds the key to the Moonlight Altar and Caria Manor.
Keep in mind that West Liurnia is a late-game location in Elden Ring. You should be at least 60 or above to take on the enemies and quests here. If you are fully prepared and fulfill those requirements, here is how to get to West Liurnia in Elden Ring.
How to reach West Liurnia in Elden Ring?
Like almost every other major location in Elden Ring, there are multiple ways to get to West Liurnia. Most players will opt for the more common but long way to reach this location. However, a second, shorter way to teleport to West Liurnia instantly exists.
Use the West Liurnia Portal
The shortest path is using the portal to teleport to West Liurnia. From right outside the Liurnia of the Lakes, make your way to the southeast toward the Academy Gate Town.
Once you’re in Academy Gate Town, head northeast toward the tower that has a portal to get to West Liurnia.
Complete Ranni’s questline
Once you are done exploring most parts of Liurnia of the Lakes, you will notice there is no way to get up the giant cliff in the southwest of the map. This location is near the Albinauric Village and might even have some quest markers. You cannot enter this area until you complete Ranni’s questline.
Once you go through her quests, you will automatically teleport to the Moonlight Altar on the top of the southwest Liurnia mountain. From here on, you can explore the remaining parts of West Liurnia and do all your remaining quests.
West Liurnia map fragment location
You will find the West Liurnia map fragment on the way to the Caria Manor in the north. Make your way to the Northern Liurnia Lake Shore Site of Grace and then head north towards the forest known as Kingsrealm Ruins.
The West Liurnia map fragment is located in the open fields just before the forest in the Elden Ring.
