This article will guide you on how to solve the objective “Journey to the House of Grief “ in Baldur’s Gate 3.
Cross the South Span Checkpoint
Whenever the players try to approach the checkpoint, the Watchers attack and initiate a battle. The simplest method is to get arrested and then escape from jail.

However, if you do not want to get imprisoned players must find another way to get through this checkpoint. Take a detour on the right side of the bridge.

Use knotted Rooted to climb down the lower level.

From there, you’ll notice a wooden structure perched alongside the cliff.

Utilize your skills like “Fly” or “Misty Step” to access the nearest wooden platform. Ascend by navigating across a few crates and then going up a wooden staircase to cross over to the opposite end of the checkpoint.

Go to the Lower City
Next, you need to go to Lower City which is located north of Wyrm’s Rock Fortress which is itself located north of the South Span of Wyrm’s Crossing Waypoint. You need to make way from this Fortification to reach the lower City. Wyrm’s Rock Fortress is surrounded by a large moat.

Head north from Wyrm’s Crossing Waypoint to the edge of the mountain, where you’ll find a few guards beside a drawbridge. However, these guards will only let you through if you hold a Lower City Pass.
To get to the fortress, walk to the edge and use the Misty spell to do a long jump to the opposite cliff on the left side. There are plenty of flat places for a safe landing.

Go around the fortress wall until you come upon a ladder. Climb the ladder to the higher level, then utilize knotted Roots to scale the fort wall.

On top, enter the fortress through the wooden doors. To open the door, use Knock Spell.

Once within the Wyrm’s Rock Fortress, use “Greater Invisibility” and pass through the left entrance into the open section of the fort near some catapult.

Walk to the edge and look down to find another drawbridge. Use Grant flight spell to glide to the drawbridge. Head in the north direction to reach the Lower City.

House of Grief Location
Once you’ve entered the Lower City in Act 3, go to the far northwest corner of the region to find the House of Grief.
To locate the House of Grief in the Lower City, first head to the Baldur’s Gate waypoint. Proceed south to the statue of Balduran, then head west through the garden, and finally, cross the northern bridge to reach the House of Grief.
