Where to find Hazelnut in Enshrouded

Hazelnuts can be found growing in the wild in trees around Embervale, primarily way up north on the map. You can come across this resource all over the northern areas, but if you need to get a lot of Hazelnuts to cook up some of the best food in Enshrouded, then you need to visit the best spot to farm for this resource.

Best location to find Hazelnut in Enshrouded

The best location to find lots of Hazelnuts to harvest is to the very north of Embervale and slightly east of the Abandoned Hunter Camp. There’s a super lush area with massive towering trees, and both in between these trees and all around them, there are plenty of Hazelnut trees you can pick this resource from.

This area is also straight west of Pike’s Port, where you find four key locations and all kinds of powerful loot like the Guard of the North armor set. There are all kinds of important locations around this part of Embervale, which is why this is one of the best spots to place your base, especially if you want to regularly farm for Hazelnuts.

Hazelnut trees are vibrant leafy green clusters with brown Hazelnuts speckled throughout, so they’re very easy to spot. You usually get around eight or so Hazelnuts per tree, and this area has around six trees located within a close proximity, but even more if you venture around slightly.
To farm lots of Hazelnuts, keep visiting this spot. No other area is as packed with this resource, so this is by far the best location to find them. You can also keep an eye out while you explore the northern areas of Embervale since you are bound to come across Hazelnut trees naturally.

Can you grow Hazelnut in Enshrouded?

Hazelnut is not currently a plant you can grow, which means the only way to obtain this food is to find it out in the wild. With a roadmap and updates planned for the future as Enshrouded progresses through early access, it’s possible that Hazelnut could be added as a growable resource in the future. For now, though, grab your Glider and Grappling Hook and prepare for a long journey north.
