Where is the Tree Gnome Village? A Comprehensive Guide
The Tree Gnome Village is located in a remote and somewhat hidden area of the world, nestled between the bustling towns of Yanille and Ardougne, situated to the far west of the map. Its secluded nature is largely due to the enormous hedge maze that guards its entrance, making it a location that requires a bit of effort to reach. This unique geography contributes to the village’s charm and mystique, and understanding its location is the first step in unlocking its secrets and accessing its unique features. The village itself is a fascinating sight, a small civilization thriving at the very heart of the challenging Gnome Maze.
Navigating to the Tree Gnome Village
Getting to the Tree Gnome Village is not as simple as walking in a straight line. You’ll need to navigate the complex Gnome Maze which acts as a natural barrier. The maze is a series of winding paths made of high hedges, with dead ends and deceptive turns designed to disorient and confuse.
Entering the Village
The most direct way to enter the Tree Gnome Village is to navigate through the Gnome Maze. Once you make your way to the center, you’ll find a loose railing which you can squeeze through to access the village itself. It’s a rite of passage for all who venture here, and a clever design that sets the village apart.
The Helpful Elkoy
If you’re looking for a more direct route, seek out Elkoy, who will guide you through the maze, saving you time and potential frustration. This is an especially helpful option for those who have already navigated the maze at least once and would like to bypass it on future trips.
Quick Teleport Options
For quicker access to the area surrounding the village, players often use the fairy ring code (CIQ), which teleports you south-west of the maze. This option allows you to bypass the majority of the open field and come directly into the vicinity.
Tree Gnome Stronghold vs. Tree Gnome Village
It’s important not to confuse the Tree Gnome Village with the Tree Gnome Stronghold. While both locations are related to the gnome civilization, they are distinct places with unique features.
Reaching the Stronghold
The Tree Gnome Stronghold is located to the north-west of Ardougne. After completing the Tree Gnome Village quest, you can access a one-way teleport directly to the Stronghold. This teleport is offered by the spirit tree located within the Tree Gnome Village itself, making it a free and convenient travel method.
Spirit Tree Teleport
The spirit tree in the Tree Gnome Village provides a crucial service by teleporting players directly to the Tree Gnome Stronghold once the appropriate quest has been finished.
Additional Navigation Methods
Besides the primary methods mentioned, several other travel routes can lead you close to the Tree Gnome Village. These methods often rely on teleportation or various items that allow you to bypass some of the travel time.
