Sons of the Forest Map & Locations Guide

A Sons of the Forest map and locations guide organized around caves, bunkers, tools, blueprints and the location questions that block progression.

Quick answer

Use the map by objective: tool, cave, bunker, blueprint or safe base route. Most location searches are not asking for a pretty full map — they are asking what to get next and how to reach it.

Primary search intent: sons of the forest map / sons of the forest locations

What players actually need from the map

A useful map page should reduce search time. Group locations by progression purpose so the player can jump directly to the shovel, a bunker, a cave or another key tool.

Caves

Caves can gate tools, resources and progression. Prepare light, food, healing and a recovery plan rather than entering every cave as soon as you see it.

Bunkers

Bunker searches often overlap with keycards and late-game progression. Keep bunker routes linked to the tools or access requirements they need.

Tools and blueprints

High-intent searches like shovel location and blueprints deserve dedicated pages because the player usually wants a step-by-step route, not a map overview.
