The secret cave in Magic Mosses has quickly become one of the hottest landing spots in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1. Hidden beneath the surface, this underground chamber holds some of the best early-game loot you can find, including Elemental Chests and rare items. While getting there takes a few extra steps compared to regular landing spots, the guaranteed high-tier loot makes it worth the effort.

Where to Find Secret Cave in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1?

The secret cave is located underneath Magic Mosses, a named POI in the northern part of the Chapter 6 map. Magic Mosses itself is fairly easy to spot from the Battle Bus – it’s a large area with dense vegetation and distinctive old-style Japanese buildings in the upper portion of the map.

You’ll want to specifically target the center building in Magic Mosses when landing, as this is where your journey to the hidden cave begins. One last thing, do remember that Magic Mosses is one of the best spots to land in season 1, so you might want to be careful. We have marked the exact location of the secret cave in Fortnite C6S1 on the map above.

Getting into the secret cave requires a bit of preparation and several specific steps. First, you need to grab an Air Sprite from the forest area surrounding Magic Mosses – look for the glowing white Sprite Shrines near the trees. Once you have an Air Sprite in your inventory, head to the center building of Magic Mosses.

Use your pickaxe to break through the wooden floor, which will drop you down to another level. Break through the second floor as well, and you’ll land in an area with water and turtle statues.

The key part comes next – look for two turtle statues positioned next to a rock wall. When you approach this wall while carrying an Air Sprite, it will reveal a hidden passage. Inside this passage, you’ll find another darker-colored rock that needs to be broken with your pickaxe. Once you break it, you’ll finally enter the main loot chamber.

The Secret Cave offers some of the best early-game loot in Chapter 6. Here’s what you can find inside:

  • Multiple Elemental Chests with chances for legendary weapons
  • Rare Chests containing high-tier items
  • A Typhoon Blade stand (probably)
  • Various floor loot and ammo boxes

After collecting your loot, you don’t need to backtrack through the cave system. Simply look for the port-a-potties inside the chamber – these will teleport you back to the surface at Magic Mosses. From there, you can either continue looting the area or rotate to your next destination based on the storm circle.

The secret cave at Magic Mosses provides a solid advantage for early game fights, but remember that as more players learn about this spot, it might become increasingly contested.

The best approach is to land quickly and secure an Air Sprite before others can reach the area. The extra effort to reach this hidden chamber is well worth it for the guaranteed high-quality loot that can set you up for success in your match.
