God of War Ragnarok The Sinkholes is one of the three large open regions in The Crater area as part of the Vanaheim Realm, which holds numerous treasures for you to find.

But, to obtain all of GoW Ragnarok The Sinkholes collectibles, it is recommended to complete The Jungle region we’ve covered here.

While completing The Jungle region, you will make the river flow again in all of The Crater regions, allowing you to explore everything and find the following Sinkholes collectibles:

  • 2 Nornir Chests
  • 1 Lore
  • 1 Artifact
  • 1 Nine Realms in Bloom
  • 1 Odin’s Raven
  • 1 Berserker Gravestone
  • 2 Dragon Hunts
  • 1 Casualty of War
  • 1 Seasonal Stag

To reach The Sinkholes region, obtain all The Jungle collectibles, fast travel to the Crater Entrance Mystic Gateway, climb the ledge on the right, drop down and follow the path east (right) through the stone circles until you reach a zip-line.

Slide down the rope to discover The Sinkholes hidden region in the Crater area.

Now, follow this guide to learn where to find all The Sinkholes collectibles in the action video game developed by Santa Monica Studios for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.

Nornir Chest 1: In A Cave

After sliding down the rope and discovering The Sinkholes hidden region, follow the path west into a small cave with the Nornir Chest.

Also, you will automatically start the Quaking Hollow Favour we’ve covered here after you enter the cave.

To open this GoW Ragnarok Sinkholes Nornir Chest, you’ll have to ignite three seal braziers using the Blades of Chaos and sigil arrows.

The first brazier is to the right of the Nornir Chest, above a small pond. Place a large sigil on the wall and detonate with your Blades of Chaos to ignite it.

To create a large sigil, shoot up to three sigil arrows in the same place to increase the effective radius.

The second brazier is on the left of the Nornir Chest on the cliffside. Place large connected sigils along the cliffside and detonate the closer one to create a chain reaction that will ignite the brazier.

For the final brazier, climb the wall to the right of the first brazier, go up the small path and look up above the cave entrance to find it.

As before, place large sigils along the wall to create a chain reaction that will ignite the brazier.

From the previous Lore collectible, turn around, and use the grappling point to swing across the river.

To the left of the Mystic Gateway, you’ll find the GoW Ragnarok Sinkholes Seasonal Stag as part of the A Stag for All Seasons Favour we’ve covered here.

To interact with the Seasonal Stag, you need a special item from the Ratatosrkr, the Squirrel at Sindri’s House.

If you don’t see the interaction button when you get close to it, return to Sindri’s House using the nearby Mystic Gateway, speak with Ratatoskr and pick up the feed off the table.

Then, return to Seasonal Stag and interact with it to progress the favor and unlock the collectible in the region overview.

Casualties Of War The Hourglass 1 (Favour Item):

Now, climb the wall near the Mystic Gateway, and destroy the yellow glowing rock using the Draupnir Spear to clear the path leading to a Dragon encounter.

To get rid of the Dragon, you’ll have to blow up the two stone pillars it sits on using the Draupnir Spear. Look for the glowing yellow spots.

After the Dragon flies away, you will automatically start The Burning Skies Favour we’ve covered here, which is one of The Sinkholes Dragon Hunt collectibles.

Now, go to the right (southwest), pull down the chains to lower the gate on the river, and follow the path ahead.

After burning the red vines and freezing the poisonous plant, squeeze through the gap and pick up the glowing purple item on the ground under the ghost to initiate the Casualty of War: The Hourglass Favour we’ve covered here.

Defeating the boss will complete the Quaking Hollow Favour mentioned above, which will count as one of the two God of War Ragnarok Sinkholes Dragon Hunt collectibles.

Dock your boat on the right side, then go to the middle of the arena to find the God of War Ragnarok Sinkholes Berserker Gravestone.

From the previous Nine Realms in Bloom collectible, head northeast to pull the chains and lower the other gate blocking the river.

Get back in the boat and sail to the right (northeast) until you reach a small beach on the left side of the river.

After docking the boat, turn your camera southeast to find the God of War Ragnarok Sinkholes Odin’s Raven perched on the cliffside.

To kill this Odin’s Raven, aim high above the raven using the Draupnir Spear. Adjust your aim up and down after each throw until you hit it.

Killing Odin’s Ravens will progress The Eyes Of Odin Favour we’ve covered here, which is mandatory to complete if you want to achieve 100% game completion.

Casualty Of War The Hourglass 2 (Favour Item): In A Cave

After killing Odin’s Raven, lift the gate behind you, deal with the enemies and blow up the pile of rocks to the right by placing three spears in each glowing yellow spot and detonating them simultaneously.

Follow the path to the end, climb the ledge on the right and hide from the Dragon’s breath on the left side of the tunnel, then blow up the glowing yellow wall on the right with the spear.

Doing so will reveal a glowing purple item on the ground as part of the Casualty of War The Hourglass Favour we mentioned earlier.

Pick up the item to complete the favour and make it count toward the GoW Ragnarok Sinkholes Casualties of War collectibles in the region overview.

During the fight against the Dragon, you’ll have to blow up the two large stone pillars around the arena using the Draupnir Spear.
