The Shovel is one of the many important things you need to survive in Sons of the Forest. You can use it to find other cool stuff and helpful things in the game. Before you go on to find the Shovel, you need to have two important tools in your arsenal: the Zipline Rope Gun and the Rebreather. With that out of the way, here’s the lowdown on how to find the Shovel in Sons of the Forest.
Where to find the Shovel in Sons of the Forest
- The Shovel is located in a cave towards the west side of the map.
- Just before the cave you will find some dead individuals. One of them has a slingshot. Take it.
- Use the slingshot to break the obstruction before the case.
After entering the Cave
- As soon as you enter, you’ll only see a steep cliff. Jump down there to grab some loot, including an Air Tank.
- Now climb up and you’ll notice a rope with some cloth hanging from it. Hang on it and Zipline Rope Gun to travel to the next location which will take you to the next cave area and keep on swimming.
- You will soon reach another area of the cave at the end of which there is a slope. Slide down and once you reach the end, you will reach a room that will be illuminated by a light.
- There are more resources in this room and once you’re done collecting, head towards the second light at the very back of the room. Exit the room and keep moving ahead. Eventually, you’ll reach a blogger room. Here you will find the Flashlight attachment and some grenades.
- Move to the next area and here you will find some mutant babies. From here you will be heading to the next section of the cave. Keep on moving unless you see a glowing light from a distance. Approach that location with care. This is where you will find enemies and the Shovel. Grab it as soon as possible and you can exit the cave.
