Valheim Mountain guide: How to find the Mountains
Valheim’s world is vast and procedurally generated, so everyone’s map is different. You may find the Mountains close to the land you start on, or a couple of islands away. Head towards any tall mountains on the horizon, and you might just come across the frigid mountain base.
