To get the Rauh Ruins Map Fragment in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree, head to the Moorth Ruins Site of Grace in Scadu Altus. If you haven’t been to this region yet, head through Castle Ensis in northern Gravesite Plain.

From Moorth Ruins, head north, and you’ll encounter a shallow lake with a cave entrance behind a headless Queen Marika statue. There’s also a Scadutree Fragment in front of the statue. Grab the Fragment and proceed through the cave, and you’ll emerge in a new area with poison pools. Continue onward and through the next cave until you reach a new area—Rauh Base.

Head southwest down the grassy canyon, carefully avoiding the Golem Archer at the far end of the canyon until you reach the ruins at the end. The Rauh Ruins Map Fragment is in front of the ruined town. You can see its location on the map above.
