As you might already know, the main story of Assassin’s Creed Shadows itself will take you multiple days of playthrough. However, the game also has various side activities that will constantly distract you on your path, which will likely increase your play time by quite a massive amount.

You’ll want to pray at shrines to get blessings before you head into fights in Assassin’s Creed Shadows.
The Path of Wisdom is one such side activity, and you can find it in one of the final areas of the game. This path has a unique walkthrough that can easily confuse you, but if you follow these steps, you can get the final chest and other rewards easily.
Where To Find The Path Of Wisdom
If you look to the northwest side of the map in Assassin’s Creed Shadows, you’ll see a massive province called Wakasa. You can find the Path of Wisdom in this province by looking for the Mount Uchinakao region on the map. This can be found on the northern side of the mainland to the east.
You can find this hidden trail near the river to the northwest of where “Mount Uchinakao” is written on the map in 2x zoom. You can get to it by going straight south from the Hikidan-jo Ruins viewpoint found to the north.
How To Beat The Path Of Wisdom
When you reach the Path of Wisdom icon on the map, you’ll see a tree with yellow platforms on it. The path starts as soon as you start climbing these platforms. Go to the end of the tree at the top and you can grapple to the stairs in front. From here, jump on the stairs to the right and then climb the yellow wall in front.
On the top of this wall, you’ll have to start moving to the right as you see the yellow paint go right as well. Keep going up here until you reach a wooden platform, where you can grapple to the cave on the other side. Inside the cave, you can once again start climbing the wall at the end while moving left.
As soon as you reach the ledge on your left at the top, turn left and you’ll see another wall you can climb. Up here, climb the tree and grapple multiple times through the cliff. Parkour a bit more and you’ll reach the chest on your left.
Path Of Wisdom Rewards
As you open the chest near the water at the end of this path, you’ll acquire Tamakichi’s Gear purple-tier armor for Naoe, which you can equip from the inventory. However, you likely have a better legendary armor by the time you do this path. You can also get one Knowledge Point and 1,000 EXP.
