Where to find the Cursed Cave in Disney Dreamlight Valley

There are many different secret locations hidden all throughout your main village in Disney Dreamlight Valley. One of the tougher spots to find and visit is the ominous Cursed Cave, a spot that unlocks fairly early on in your journey but is easy to forget about.

As you progress, you’ll encounter several main storyline missions and friendship quests that task you with visiting this location. Tracking down this hidden area can be rather tough, so here’s where to find the Cursed Cave in Disney Dreamlight Valley.

Cursed Cave location in Disney Dreamlight Valley

The Cursed Cave, also sometimes known as the Mysterious Cave, is located near the far northeast end of the Dazzle Beach biome in DDV. This spot is different from the Mystical Cave, which exists within the same biome, but is accessed from the middle grassy area.

This hidden area is marked with a light blue Mickey house icon — the same icon that marks villager houses, except in a lighter color. It’s the only spot in the valley with this unique version of he icon, so it’s easy enough to find once you know what you’re looking for. There’s only one entrance to this spot, and unlike most houses and buildings, it cannot be moved.

How to find the Cursed Cave in Disney Dreamlight Valley

Finding and entering the Cursed Cave can be pretty tough even when you do know where to look, as it’s tucked away in a hidden corner area you might struggle to pinpoint. Here’s a full breakdown of how to venture into this location.

• Travel to the Dazzle Beach biome. It’s best to walk down the ramp that leads into this area from the south end of Forest of Valor or the east end of Peaceful Meadow, as these two get you closest to the right area. You can arrive in this biome from anywhere, though.
• Make your way east along the beach. Regardless of where you start off in this biome, head east as much as you can. You need to reach the far northeast corner of the biome to access the cave.
• When you reach the east end, turn around. After traveling as far east as you can, pan the camera back the way you came.
• Look for the yellow lamp and wooden barrels in front of the cave. These furnishings can be found right in front of the cave entrance. As soon as you spot them, approach the cave to head inside.

Windrose‘s map might appear pretty small at first, but it expands quickly once you explore new areas. After a certain point, traveling from one point to another will take a lot of time, whether you travel the distance on land or by ship.

Thankfully, there’s a pretty elaborate fast travel system that’s been added from the demo to the early access version.

How does fast travel work in Windrose

If you’ve played the demo of Windrose, you’ll be pretty well aware of the system in place. If you’re someone completely new, read on. Once you’ve completed the first quest and started How My Shore Adventure Began (can’t miss as it’s part of the main story), you’ll be able to smelt your first copper ingot.

Once you know how to get Copper Ingot, you’ll be able to make a Fast Travel Bell using the Workbench. You’ll need 10 Copper Ingots and three Ropes to create a bell. Incidentally, you can also get Fast Travel Bell as random loot.

To set up a network, you’ll also need to create a Fast Travel Point. You can do that from the build menu. To create a Fast Travel Point, you’ll need 20 Wood and one Fast Travel Bell.

Before you can fast travel, you’ll need at least two points in two different locations. You can create two points on the same island, but they have to be distant from one another. Fast Travel Points can only be placed near water.

When you’re on your ship, you can fast travel from any location by selecting the point. This works as long as you’re not being chased by an enemy or in active combat. If you’re walking on foot, you’ll have to travel to a Fast Travel Point manually. I am unsure as to why the system works like this, but it is what it is.

Additionally, you can also find random Fast Travel Points existing in several locations. The different faction islands also have them, and you can use those after activating them by manually traveling to those locations. Once done, those travel points will be automatically added to your network.
