Valheim Merchants Unveiled: Essential Trading Hubs

Valheim Merchant Locations and Inventory Guide: Finding Haldor, Hildir, and the Bog Witch

Valheim's challenging world becomes significantly easier with the help of its merchants. This guide details the locations and inventories of Haldor (Black Forest), Hildir (Meadows), and the Bog Witch (Swamp). Finding them can be tricky due to procedural generation, but this guide will help you locate and utilize these valuable traders.

How to Find Haldor (Black Forest Merchant)

Haldor, often the easiest to find, spawns within a 1500m radius of your world's center. He resides in the Black Forest. He's frequently located near The Elder's spawn point (often identifiable by glowing ruins in Burial Chambers). For a more efficient search, use the Valheim World Generator (created by wd40bomber7) to pinpoint his exact location based on your world seed. Once found, build a portal for easy access. Trade with him using gold obtained from exploring dungeons and selling gems (Rubies, Amber Pearls, Silver Necklaces, etc.).

How to Find Hildir (Meadows Merchant)

Hildir, located in the Meadows, is harder to find than Haldor due to her more distant spawn (3000-5100m from the world center, with spawn points roughly 1000m apart). The Valheim World Generator is recommended. Alternatively, search Meadows within the specified radius. A T-shirt icon appears on the map when you're 300-400m away. Build a portal after finding her. Hildir offers clothing with stamina reduction buffs and quests rewarding access to new shop items. These quests involve finding her lost chests in various dungeons:

• Smouldering Tombs (Black Forest)
• Howling Caverns (Mountains)
• Sealed Towers (Plains)

How to Find The Bog Witch (Swamp Merchant)

The Bog Witch, found in the Swamp biome (between 3000m and 8000m from the world center, with spawn points 1000m apart), is the most challenging merchant to locate. The Valheim World Generator is highly recommended. Look for her Cauldron icon on the map as you approach. She offers items for cooking new foods and crafting meads.
