Limgrave is the first main area of Elden Ring and the starting point for the game’s vast open world.
You reach it directly after completing the tutorial when you leave the stranded graveyard and push open the gates of Limgrave, revealing vast lands waiting to be explored.
Lush landscapes await you: full of ruins, hills and old weathered structures. And, of course, plenty of formidable enemies that will test your combat skills.
Now you can do whatever you want and tackle FromSoftware’s massive open-world RPG however you want. If you’re not sure where to start, we’re here to guide you through Limgrave and your first steps into the Lands Between.

How to get to Limgrave
Normal path: To access Limgrave, simply make your way through the beached graveyard. However, this tutorial is completely optional.
Skip the tutorial: You can get to Limgrave faster by choosing not to jump into the large pit that leads to the stranded graveyard, but instead go around it by taking the stairs to the elevator that leads to Limgrave.
