Even though collecting treasure maps isn’t part of the main quests in God Of War Ragnarök, their sweet loot will help you with your journey.
There are many different types of collectable and side quest in God Of War Ragnarök but one of the most tricky to work out can be the treasure maps.
They function similarly to the photos in Zelda: Breath Of The Wild, in that they’re not maps at all, just a drawing of a location that you have to recognise from memory and then go and check out.
There are 10 treasure maps in total, with the their rewards varying depending on how hard they are to find.
For starters, here are all the map locations as divided across the Nine Realms:
Midgard: 2 maps Svartalfheim: 3 maps Alfheim: 2 maps Vanaheim: 3 maps
Once you’ve found a map, you can then look for the hidden treasure as it’ll be buried under a dishevelled pile of dirt – there will also be a glowing gold glint above it to make sure you don’t miss it.
However, that will only happen if you’ve already got the treasure map. There’s no way to get the treasure if you don’t have the map in hand, as even if you know its location Kratos won’t get the prompt to unearth it.
So, with that in mind, let’s see the locations of all the maps and their treasures in God Of War Ragnarök…
Viking’s Gift (Midgard)
Map Location: Found on the west side of the Raider Fort, northwest of Týr’s Temple on the Lake of Nine.
Treasure Location: Go to the east of the Lake of Nine and take the path towards the Raider Hideout. Before you go in, you’ll see a pair of huge metal doors. The treasure lies in front of them.

Demise of Dagestr (Midgard)
Map Location: The treasure might be in Midgard, but the map is in Svartalfheim, in the north of the Sverd Sands. Head back into the mine from the lower gateway once you’ve unlocked the Draupnir Spear and you’ll see a point where you can stick one in the wall to climb up. Above is the body of a Dwarf, with the map lying next to her.
Treasure Location: Go to Midgard, to the Western Lake of Nine. Just North of the Raider Fort is a Realm Tower, and there you’ll find the corpse of a dragon, with the treasure under its head.
