Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree – How to Reach the Ancient Ruins of Rauh

The Ancient Ruins of Rauh in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree looks very complex when you enter it. Thankfully, it’s one of the few regions in the Realm of Shadow accessible through multiple routes. Let’s discuss one of them here.

How to Reach the Ancient Ruins of Rauh

Start from the Main Gate Plaza Site of Grace in the Shadow Keep. Immediately go to the left, through the door and up the staircase. Ignore the enemies and take the next set of stairs on the right, leading up to a platform and another staircase. Next, go through the door leading into a massive dining hall and progress straight out of it till you reach a fork.

Take the right path, pass the burning boats, and take the next left. At the end is an elevator leading up to the Specimen Storehouse. Go left from the Site of Grace to another elevator that heads down. Go right till the end and then left, down the stairs. You’ll arrive in a room with enemies crawling out of jars and smaller pot enemies.

Move towards the left side of the room while heading up and right after exiting. Keep going straight towards another Site of Grace. Ahead is a massive door, but go through the small door on the right. Ride across the bridge and enter the room to your right. Venture up the stairs and take the elevator to another Site of Grace. Go outside to be greeted by the Ancient Ruins of Rauh.
