How Vista Points Work in Horizon Forbidden West
Vista Points are picture matching puzzles that begin in a Vista Tower in Horizon: Forbidden West. These towers, when scanned, will give you an incomplete and pixelated image.
The goal is to take this image and match it to an environmental setting around you. Once you find the corresponding location, the Vista Point image becomes clear and you can see what that area looked like a long time ago.
There are nine Vista Points scattered across the Forbidden West and each has a 1500 XP reward. A final reward will also be unlocked once you find them all.

The Daunt Vista Point location at Horizon Forbidden West
The Vista Tower in The Daunt is located between Chainscrape and Barren Light in Horizon: Forbidden West. Once you find the tower, scan it and you will have the picture you need to match.

Location of Plainsong Vista Point in Horizon Forbidden West
This Vista Tower is located west of Plainsong at the base of the Horizon Mountain Range: Forbidden West. Once you find the tower, scan it and get the image.
You can find Vista Point in the mountains west of Vista Tower. From the Tower, climb the mountain and climb the cliff. There will be two rusty platforms that overlook Plainsong.
Look for three windmills; two of them will be intact and one will be broken. The Vista Point will be on the rusty platform between an intact windmill and the broken windmill. Watch out for the Sunwings there.
Location of Memorial Grove Vista Point at Horizon Forbidden West
This Vista Tower is located north of The Memorial Grove on a hill overlooking the river, broken planes, and plains in Horizon: Forbidden West. It stands above the road markers directing people to the Memorial Grove and Cliffwatch near the campfire.
The Vista Point will be in the mountain along the river. From Vista Tower, look east toward the Great Mountain Range. You will see a broken radar antenna if you look along the mountains.
Head up the mountain to this flat and you will find a concrete platform overlooking the valley. Turn towards the radar and Vista Point will be full.
Location of Scalding Spear Vista Point in Horizon Forbidden West
This Vista Tower is located northeast of Scalding Spear in the mountains above a Sunwing site in Horizon: Forbidden West.
Vista Point is located west of the tower on the Sunwing site. There will be two rusty platforms overlooking Scalding Spear. Look for the one with a broken tree trunk leading to it, but beware of the Sunwings. You will have to fight them to gain access to Vista Point.
The Stillsands Vista Point location at Horizon Forbidden West
The Vista Tower in The Stillsands is located west of Camp Nowhere and north of Hidden Ember in the mountains. There will be machines roaming the area near the tower; you may have to fight Burrowers, Fire Bristlebacks, and Sunwings there.

Location of Dunehollow Vista Point in Horizon Forbidden West

The location of Long Coast Vista Point at Horizon Forbidden West
The Long Coast’s Vista Tower can be found north of Tide’s Reach, all the way north along the coast, just south of the greenhouse in Horizon Forbidden: West.
The Vista Point will be on a small island off the coast to the west of the tower. Walk along the beach and you will see a small mountainous island. There will be machines that you may have to fight or you can sneak past them. Head up the mountain and face the ruins of the Faro building to the north.
Location of Shrouded Heights Vista Point in Horizon Forbidden West
To find the Vista Tower in Shrouded Heights, you will need to go to the Isle of Spires. Head to the northern part of the island in Horizon: Forbidden West. You will find the tower in the ruins.
For Vista Point, you will have to swim underwater. The image will be a domed building with the Golden Gate Bridge behind it. From the tower, go into the water and dive. The domed building will be easily spotted. Swim around the bottom of the ocean until you see a yellow handle (to propel you underwater). This will be the location of Vista Point.
Location of Isle of Spiers Vista Point in Horizon Forbidden West
The Vista Tower on the island of Spiers of Horizon: Forbidden West will be in the southern part of the island in the ruins near a Sunwing site. It is recommended to have Sunwing support.
To get this view, you’ll need to climb the tall structure next to the tower. If you have a Sunwing mount, you can fly to the top and have it roost.
From there you will have to keep climbing. There will be a large radio tower to the right of the roost. Climb up to a metal platform and exit onto the yellow beam, then look towards the town.
How to Collect Vista Point Final Reward in Horizon Forbidden West
Once you have completed all Vista Points in Horizon: Forbidden West, you will receive coordinates for a reward.
The coordinates will take you to a location along the coast on the west side of the Isle of Spires. In the ruins you will find the reward in an old safe. The reward will be accompanied by an audio message “Our thanks” from Elisabet Soebeck thanking you for participating in the tour.
The reward you receive will be random, but it will be a combination of Silver Ingots, Bronze Ingots, Ancient Chimes, Ancient Necklaces, Ancient Metal Eyes, and Ancient Sculptures. You will also receive an additional 1500 XP.
