Dawnguard Regional Activities

Overview

Optimal Activity Start

The following activities are available during your time exploring two large areas: the Soul Cairn and the Forgotten Vale. Think of them as a subsection of Side Quests specific to these geographical areas. For quests that span more than these locations, consult the Side Quest chapter.

Available Activities

There are a total of eight Regional Activities: seven in the Soul Cairn and two in Forgotten Vale. Aside from a few exceptions, most of these tasks are independent of one another and can be completed whenever you encounter them or if you return to either location.
