How to get to the Haligtree in Elden Ring
To reach the Haligtree in Elden Ring,you must complete the Evergaol puzzle inside Ordina, Liturgical Town. This town is found in the north of the Consecrated Snowfield, and to get there, you need to find both halves of the secretHaligtree Medallionand use them at the Grand Lift Of Rold.
It sounds like a lot, but we actually already cover most of these steps in our similar guide onhow to get to the Consecrated Snowfield in Elden Ring. Below, we’ll focus in on two key areas: how to find the Haligtree Medallion halves; and how to solve the Evergaol puzzle in Ordina, Liturgical Town.
Haligtree Medallion locations

1st Haligtree Medallion Half (Village Of The Albinaurics)
If you don’t know where the Village Of The Albinaurics is, head to the very southern edge of the lake in Liurnia, and head west along its edge until you reach a poisonous pool. From there, you should be able to see a slope leading up along the cliff edge. Follow this path to the Village Of The Albinaurics.
Once you reach the Village Of The Albinaurics Site Of Grace, head up the slope to your east, past the Depraved Perfumer. At the end of the path, next to the cliff wall, is a pot. Attack this pot to reveal Albus The Albinauric. You can then exhaust his dialogue in order to receive the first half of the Haligtree Medallion.
2nd Haligtree Medallion Half (Castle Sol)
The second Haligtree Medallion half is located in Castle Sol, which is found at the northernmost point of the Mountaintops Of The Giants beyondLeyndell. Castle Sol is a tricky dungeon filled with high-level enemies, and at the top is Commander Niall, one of thetoughest bosses in Elden Ring.

BeatCommander Niall, and then ride the elevator just past the boss room until you reach the topmost point of Castle Sol. There you’ll find a chest containing the second Haligtree Medallion half.
How to use the Haligtree Medallion
Once you’ve found both halves of the Haligtree Medallion, all that remains is to head back to the Grand Lift Of Rold. This is the Grand Lift you used to travel from the Forbidden Lands beyond Leyndell to the Mountaintops Of The Giants.
Stand at the base of the Grand Lift Of Rold, and use the D-Pad to switch from the “Hoist medallion” option to the “Hoist secret medallion” option. Activate this option and you’ll be transported into the Consecrated Snowfield. From there, you can make your way north to Ordina, Liturgical Town.
Ordina, Liturgical Town walkthrough
Ordina, Liturgical Town is a small town north of the frozen river in the Consecrated Snowfield. The only way to reach the Haligtree in Elden Ring is to complete the Evergaol puzzle in Ordina, and activate the teleporter at the northernmost post of the town. Below we’ll go through how to do exactly that.
Ordina itself is empty of threats, so head up both sets of stairs in front of you, and then move counter-clockwise all the way around the building in front of you to find the Evergaol. Next to the Evergaol entrance on the floor is an imp statue. You can interact with it for the puzzle hint: “Light the four figures in the evergaol”. Then feel free to enter the Evergaol.

Once the fourth flame is lit, you will automatically exit out of the Evergaol and back into the real Ordina. But now, the barrier sealing you off at the top of the long staircase to the north has been lifted. Go up the stairs and you’ll find a portal which will teleport you straight to the Haligtree.
Well, there you go! I hope you’re prepared. Miquella’s Haligtree is one of the most difficult (perhapsthemost difficult)areas of Elden Ring, and contains the infamous and mightyMalenia, Blade Of Miquella.
