Hidden City – The Nightmare DLC – Locating the Path of Fear (part 1)

After following the flooded tunnels from Skull Cave, as described in the main walkthrough, Lara surfaces in a cave.

Climb out of the water onto the little, stone island on the right. Climb to the top of this island.

Turn left (north) and jump over the water to grapple the climbable wall ahead.

Climb the cable until Lara latches onto the wall. Continue climbing up and to the left.

Then jump out to the left and grapple the overhang so Lara is dangling above the pool.

Adjust the length of the cable if necessary. Swing and jump through the opening into the next pool to the north.

Swim forward toward the large, well-lit gap in the rocks, then around behind the jutting rock formation on the right.

Climb out of the water here. Vault up onto the rocks, turn right, and move out onto the jutting edge overlooking the pool.

From there, jump over the water and latch onto the climbable wall. Climb up and to the left.

Again, jump out and grapple the overhang above on the left so Lara is dangling above the pool.

This time, climb the cable until Lara latches onto the overhang.

Climb the angled ceiling to the handhold above. Then scramble up onto the ledge above...

...where you're greeted with a majestic view of the valley and some nearby ruins.

To get inside, follow the rocky ledge on the left to the end. Then use the dangling vine to swing over to the ledge in front of the raised doorway.

Proceed through the building and out the other side.

Continue along the path and approach the Paititian woman to trigger a cutscene.
