Treasure Maps (Skyrim)
English
Treasure Maps of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim reveal the location of hidden treasure
chests. While these appear to be simple wooden chests, they contain loot equivalent
to boss chests. The maps do not have to be in the inventory in order to find the
treasure, but they must have been read. If one is searching for the treasure without
having read the map, it will not be there.
Skyrim Treasure Map I
Map Location: After leaving Helgen and splitting ways with Ralof/Hadvar at the
beginning of the game, follow the dirt path until it meets a cobblestone road. Turn
left. Follow this road until coming to a sign with directions to Riverwood, Helgen and
Falkreath. Take the first left after this sign (traveling southwest) then look left while
walking down the path. It will be on one of the bandits in the small camp. Location:
Bandit Camp: Ilinalta Foothills
A copy of Night Falls on Sentinel a (One-Handed) Skill Book is also here. Keep this
book as it is a part of the miscellaneous quest "Bring one Night Falls on Sentinel to
Rustleif."
Treasure Location: Go directly across the river in Riverwood. One will see a huge tree
trunk lying down. The chest will be in there.
Treasure Map 2
Map Location: In a knapsack, in Journeyman's Nook.
Treasure Location: Valtheim Towers just east of Whiterun. In a chest nestled in some
rocks next to the river, just east of the keep.
Treasure Map 3
Map Location: found in Riverside Shack inside a chest with a leveled lock. A sabre cat
or a cave bear is usually inside, feasting on the bones of a fisherman.
The Light Armor Skill Book Rislav the Righteous is inside the shack under two other
books to the left of the bookshelf.
Treasure Location: follow the shore line around to the northwest side of the Solitude
Lighthouse, northeast of Solitude. The treasure chest is behind a rock on shore below
the huge boulder that comes to a point at the top. It is easiest to find if by swimming
into the sea north of the lighthouse and aligning oneself with the image portrayed in
the map.
There are many mudcrabs along the shore and two Nirnroot near the lighthouse.
Treasure Map IVEdit
Treasure Map 4
Map Location: Found in Redoran's Retreat in a chest near the bandit chief. (The 1.2
game update may be causing the treasure to not be present for some players even
with the treasure map. The 1.3.7.0 update fixes this.)
Treasure Location: It leads to a treasure located behind Pelagia Farm south and
slightly west of Whiterun. The chest is actually southwest of the farm, but the map
shows that one will need to start east. (The following part does not follow the map).
Start by facing the front of the windmill. From there, go south up the hill. Once upon
the dark snow path, start moving directly west. One will pass by a tall tree with a
snow cover trunk and branches on the top half only. Continue to go west; soon, one
will come to the chest at a small snow covered bush.
Treasure Map VEdit
Treasure Map 5
Map Location: Found in the end table in the bedroom at Angi's Camp.
Treasure Location: Near the base of Bard's Leap Summit. After plummeting from the
large waterfall, follow the leftmost aqueduct (taking the path down is suggested) all
the way down. The chest can be found at the very base where the falls meet the
river, behind the waterfall.
The chest is under water by a large rock, but visible.
Treasure Map VIEdit
Treasure Map 6
Map Location: A Bloody Trail (an unmarked location). An easy way to find the dead
female Wood Elf is to head north northwest from Volunruud up hill toward the top of
the mountain (towards the Shrine of Mehrunes Dagon) until encountering a blood
trail. Follow the blood trail to the left to a rock outcropping to find her. A leveled bow
is along the trail. A dead male Wood Elf lies at the other end of the trail, suggesting
that an altercation occurred over the map. This map can be easily found by heading
up hill directly from Volunruud with west and north visible on the compass.
Treasure Location: Korvanjund; the chest is located on top of the archway by the tree.
Treasure Map VIIEdit
