The Shadow of the Erdtree expansion has provided fans with another compelling reason to delve into the rich world of Elden Ring. However, this expansion is not merely an extension of the main game; it significantly diverges from it in many aspects.
One notable change is the level design. The Land of Shadow is much more complex. While some fans appreciate this added depth, others may find navigation challenging. The Cathedral of Manus Metyr is a particularly important location that fans should explore, though reaching it is no easy feat. The guide below details the exact route you have to take to reach the location.

How To Get To The Cathedral of Manus Metyr
The Cathedral of Manus Metyr is a location you'll encounter after leaving the starting area of the expansion, Gravesite Plain. Getting there involves a lengthy and complex journey, but it can be reached with a few straightforward steps.
Begin by locating the Moorth Ruins site of grace, which serves as the starting point for the guide below. The above image reveals its exact location. Once you've reached this spot, mount your trusty Torrent and head southeast, passing numerous broken structures. Near a pile of debris from one of these structures, you'll find a path leading downward.
Elden Ring Publisher Offers Tip for Players Struggling With Shadow of the Erdtree’s Difficulty
Elden Ring's publisher, Bandai Namco, offers some important advice to players who are struggling with Shadow of the Erdtree's difficulty.
Use your Torrent to descend below; be cautious as enemies may be present, so be on your guard. As you descend, follow the cave that continues downward. Instead of proceeding through the door illuminated by two candles, turn around and go down even further. Once you've reached the bottom, head towards the cave directly in front of you where you'll encounter a ladder. Climb upwards, and you'll arrive at Bonny Village, your first pit stop on this journey.
Interact with the site of grace directly in front of you, then proceed southeast briefly before heading eastward. You'll encounter a broken bridge that's too far to cross directly. Descend below and turn right to find a path upward again. Cross the next two bridges ahead of you to reach a forested area.
Take a moment to breathe a sigh of relief, as you're now much closer to your destination. Follow the damp road ahead and steer clear of the burning monster. Continue along the path until you eventually reach another site of grace. Interact with it to unlock it as a fast travel point for future journeys.
Continue following the road and take a left when it diverges. Eventually, you will arrive at The Cathedral of Manus Metyr. This location is crucial to your journey as it is where you will encounter the merchant Count Ymir and his servant, Jolan.
