After completing the intro missions in Horizon Forbidden West and really getting into the groove of things in the open world, players will quickly realize that the map has lots of different icons to discover. There are campfire locations to unlock, machine zones, Cauldrons, environmental puzzles, rebel camps, and more. After leaving the first major town in the game, players will start to spot semi-tall towers known as Vista Towers, and there are nine to find in Horizon Forbidden West.

After players start to explore the area known as Memorial Grove, they can find one of the Vista Towers. This Horizon Forbidden West guide will show players the location of the Vista Tower in Memorial Grove and how to find the Vista Point image.

The map will show a yellow circle where the image can be found, but it won't show the exact location. While Aloy will give players a few hints, finding where the image lines up can still be challenging.

Vista Point: Memorial Grove in Horizon Forbidden West

Find Where the Vista Image Was Taken

Once players find the Vista Tower near a campfire, they will need to activate their focus ability using R3 (clicking in the right stick). Scan the front of the tower and a blurry image will appear in Aloy's vision. Players will need to find the location where the Vista Point image was taken --luckily, players can find the correct spot in just a matter of seconds.

To the east of the Vista Tower in Memorial Grove is a path that goes across a river. Follow the path and keep to the left to reach a scalable mountain. Players can also use the image below and follow the orange path or red arrows.

Once players are here, press the right stick again to bring up the Vista Point image and line up the picture with the real world. If it doesn't work the first time, just keep moving the right stick until the blurry image falls into place. Players will see that this area used to be a military base in the far past before the events of the Horizon series.

Horizon Forbidden West is available now for PS4 and PS5.
