How to find Aged Venison in Disney Dreamlight Valley

The path to finding Aged Venison in the Cave of Wonders is a pretty tricky one, so here’s the exact route you need to take to locate the Aged Venison in Disney Dreamlight Valley.

  • Enter the Cave of Wonders which is found in The Wastes area located within the Glittering Dunes biome.
    • If you can’t find the Cave of Wonders in this area, you may need to work on completing the Diamond in the Rough quest with Gaston first since this is how you unlock it.
  • Head down the stairs.
  • Proceed to the middle of the room, where there’s a massive archway.
  • Walk through the archway.
  • Head up the stairs.
  • Walk through the archway on the left, which is the one with a mirror right by the entrance.

  • Walk forward until you spot a pile of glittering gold treasure.
  • Equip your Royal Shovel.
