Elden Ring Chelona’s Rise Great Wise Beasts Location Puzzle: How To Get Inside

March 20, 2022

Elden Ring Chelona’s Rise is a landmark found on the Moonlight Altar plateau, high above the southwest of Liurnia of the Lakes.

To access the Moonlight Altar region, you will need to make substantial progress in Ranni The Witch’s quest we covered here, up to the point where you kill Astel, Naturalborn of the Void in the Grand Cloister and obtain access to the lift in the Deep Ainsel Well, which goes up to the plateau.

Throughout this guide, we will show you where you can find Chelona’s Rise and the three great wise beasts to unlock the treasure waiting inside.

Starting from the Moonlight Altar Site of Grace and following the path marked on the map, you will not have any trouble defeating any enemies to reach Chelona’s Rise.

Upon reaching Chelona’s Rise, you will notice the entrance is sealed by a magical barrier like we’ve seen before in Tetsu’s Rise Tower and Oridys’s Rise Tower.

An Imp Statue holds a glowing book by the entryway, telling you to “Seek three great wise beasts.”

The Great Wise Beasts mentioned in the book are giant ghostly turtles, which you must locate and attack.

Unlike other towers we completed before, these turtles are scattered across the entire plateau.

Therefore the map below shows all three locations for the great wise beast we are looking for.
