The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt eGuide Appendices and Compendiums Places of Power

No Mans Land and Novigrad

It is a surprise that Eternal Fire adherents have not destroyed this Place of Power.

Nearest Signpost: Elector’s Square

Sign: Igni

Nothing complex about this Place of Power, just try to avoid picking fights with the city guard roaming the area.


This mountain overlooks the village of Downwarren, and hides at its peak a Place of Power.

Nearest Signpost: Downwarren

Sign: Yrden

The mountain in question is to the west of Downwarren, a simple ride through the woods to the north of it should place you at the base of the peak. From there it is a climb on foot, climbing up ledges and crossing small gaps until you reach the monument.


This Place of Power stands quiet and alone on an isolated beach, but danger lurks in the nearby waters.

Nearest Signpost: Lornruk

Sign: Quen

Reaching the Place of Power at this location can be a challenge. You must first get down to the waters below and, unless you make it easy on yourself with a boat, you’ll have to brave a jump into the waters from the nearby cliffs. The waters surrounding the isle are infested by drowners, which can be problematic if they detect Geralt attempting to draw from the monument.


In the marshes south of Frischlow, a Place of Power awaits.

Nearest Signpost: Frischlow

Sign: Aard

Frischlow is a nearly abandoned town on the lands south of Fyke Isle. Nearly. Level 16 wraiths haunt the place, and will make short work of the unprepared. Farther south of this town lies the Place of Power. If you plan to come to this place early in your adventure, give a wide berth to Frischlow and go straight for the monument, and leave as quickly as you came unless you are ready for the monsters in the area.


Atop a hill near the village Alness, this Place of Power overlooks the lands east of Novigrad.

Nearest Signpost: Alness

Sign: Axii

Reaching this Place of Power requires you to approach its hill from the north. You need to jump across a large gap from one part of the hill to the peak, where the monument rests.


Draw this energy as you listen to the cries of the woodland spirit.

Nearest Signpost: Ancient Oak

Sign: Igni

Just west of the Ancient Oak signpost, on the rocky outcrop adjacent to the cave entrance allowing you access under the tree itself, is a Place of Power. Beware of the werewolf and tree spirit as you investigate, at any time, or during Main Quest: The Whispering Hillock.


Usually inaccessible, until you face one of the Wild Hunt here.

Nearest Signpost: Road to Bald Mountain

Sign: Quen

This Place of Power is perched on the precarious route to the oak tree atop Bald Mountain, where the crones hold their Sabbath. It is inaccessible until you commence Main Quest: Bald Mountain.


Not accessible until you undergo Main Quest: Wandering in the Dark

Nearest Signpost: Byways

Sign: Yrden

A Place of Power hidden deep within the elven ruins north of Byways is not accessible until you begin Main Quest: Wandering in the Dark. After completing this quest, start Secondary Quest: Magic Lamp, solve the mystery of the four guardians, and enter the hidden sepulcher where the Magic Lamp is found. The Place of Power is guarded by a Golem, up a climable passage to your left.
