Find five blue/teal/turquise ceramic whistles hanging from rope. They are shaped like skulls. Shoot them with your bow and arrow to complete the challenge.

1 - After climbing through a small horizontal crevice in the wall, go down the stairs to enter a slightly larger chamber. This room has a monolith (too deteriorated to read) and a mural. Continue straight ahead, use your bow to rope pull some wreckage out of the way, then cut the rope near the ground to trigger the spear trap. Crouch under the spear trap. As soon as Lara straightens up again, the whistle is hanging from some beams near the ceiling ahead of you.



2 - Crouch through the narrow, rat-filled cave to the right. As soon as you exit, the whistle is hanging from a structure on Lara's right, quite high up in the air.



3 - As soon as you escape the narrow underwater path and climb ashore, turn Lara to the right to see the whistle hanging at head-level slightly ahead of you.



4 - Enter the room with the pyramid. Follow the path across the first of the climbable bell platforms to the section of solid ground where you push a cart to weigh down a bell platform. After you've done this, jump to the first of the platforms and then to the second. Looking straigt ahead, you should see the next whistle.



5 - Continue your climb along the path of bell platforms until you get to the second cart puzzle. The final whistle is hanging in the center of this area, above wooden platform you can rotate.



Thanks to user szzlbscts for providing information about the locations of some of the challenge items for this challenge.

Pick five blue flowers from the canopy. These flowers are spread throughout the highground near the plane wreckage camp. Note: You can come across these flowers in the canopy other places in the Peruvian jungle as well, but I do no know if picking them counts towards the challenge. If you have information about this, it would be great if you would share it.

Note: This section of the guide is missing some screenshots. If you have good screenshots it would be great if you shared them.

1 - Climb up on the central rock structure near the pond where the plane crashed. Jump onto the nearby branch and pick the flowers.


2 - South of the pond where the plane crashed, jump up to grab some vines twisted around a tree trunk. Jump again to reach the branch above, where you can find the flowers.


3 - From your position when picking up flowers 2/5, jump to the curved vine ahead and swing to the branch beyond. Jump onto the next branch to find the flowers. This branch is very close to the yellow crates with your gear.


4 - From your position when picking up flowers 3/5, jump to the curved vine ahead and swing to the branch beyond. There is a nest on this branch. Jump to the branch ahead of you to find the flowers.


5 - From your position when picking up flowers 4/5, jump to the curved vine ahead and swing to land on a small raised platform. Balance on the log protruding from the platform and jump to the branch ahead to find the flowers. This location is close to the location of the first optional challenge tomb.


[Second image coming soon.[

Other locations

- Note: It is not confirmed whether this flower counts towards the challenge or not. In the area where Lara defeats the empress jaguar (the one she turns into an outfit), there is a branch with flowers on them.

Shoot down four oropendola nests to complete this challenge. The nests are brown, drop-shaped clusters of twigs, and can be found hanging from high places. Note: There are more than four oropendola nests spread throughtout the Peruvian jungle, and they can all count towards the challenge. The screenshots are taken with Lara standing directly under (or as close as possible to) the nests.

1 - When standing where the crates with your gear fell down, face south east to see the nest hanging from a branch ahead of you.


2 - When standing where the crates with your gear fell down, face west to see the nest hanging from a branch above an abyss.


3 - When standing on top of the central rock structure near the pond by the wreckage (where one of the ropes holding your gear up was), face south east to see the nest hanging from a branch in front of you.


4 - When standing on the top of the central rock structure near the pond by the wreckage, face north east to see the nest hanging from a branch ahead of you. You can jump onto the branches ahead to get closer if you want to, or you can shoot it from where you are standing.


Other locations
Thanks to user itsjorge for confirming that these also count towards the challenge.

- As soon as you regain control of Lara after the cutscene where you encounter the jaguar, there is a nest hanging from a branch above you.
- Shortly after you regain control of Lara after the cutcene where you encounter the jaguar, there is a nest hanging from a branch close to a large log overhanging the path.

Hit every target with a ball. Find one of the black balls scattered around the playground (they look like kettlebells) and throw it at each of the four archery targets.

1 - As soon as you gain control of Lara, the three first targets are to your right. Target 1 is hanging on the trunk of a tree.


2 - As soon as you gain control of Lara, the three first targets are to your right. Target 2 is hanging from a branch on a tree.


3 - As soon as you gain control of Lara, the three first targets are to your right. Target 3 is standing on a tripod.


4 - This one is in a slightly different location than the other two. In the back of the garden (behind Lara when you first gain control of her) there is a hammock. Target 4 is hanging from a tree branch above the hammock.

Harvest five aquatic plants. Kuwaq Yaku is located near a body of water, so simply jump in and start exploring. Most of them are located close to the docks. Aquatic plants glow when using survival instinct.

The easiest place to complete this challenge is in the large body of water located south of the bar, see image below.
[Image coming soon]

Note: If you are already full up on various plants, you will have to either craft some herbal mixtures to empty your storage, or sell some plants to a merchant to make room in your inventory.

Note: There is more than five plants in the water. Collecting any of them will count towards the challenge.

As this challenge is very easy to complete, I wil not include specific directions to each plant.

Destroy five sacreligious jungle totems. Shoot the totems to destroy them. They can be found hanging in the air throughout Kuwaq Yaku, more specifically in the northern part of the hub. Note: The totems will sometimes still glow when using survival instincts even though you have shot them down and they are on the ground.

Note: This section of the guide is missing some screenshots. If you have good screenshots it would be great if you shared them.

1/5 - Near the entrance to the challenge tomb north in Kuwaq Yaku, find the totem hanging from a branch just at the tomb entrance.

Detonate five oil barrels. The barrels are red and can be found scatter throughout the northern part of Kuwaq Yaku. Shoot them to detonate them.

Note: If you stand too close to the barrels when detonating them, Lara can get injured.

1 - Start out at the Kuwaq Yaku Ruins basecamp. Instead of taking the path to the left, through the mud, head up the stairs to the right. The barrel is located between two flights of stairs, you might actually see it when standing by the basecamp.


2 - From where you detonated barrel 1, move up the second flight of stairs. Follow the path to the left first, which soon takes a right turn, leading you to a pit with some shallow water in it. The secoond barrel can be found to the right in this pit.


3 - From where you stood when shooting barrel 2, head back to the top of the stairs. When looking towards the hunting ground (sunfilled meadow full of animals), there is an elevated path to the right. Follow this path to the end, then drop down and follow the wall of foliage as it makes a right turn. Barrel 3 will be visible to you at this point.


4 - From where you detonated barrel 3, follow the path straight ahead to find barrel 4. You can see a muddy pick-up truck at the end of this path.


5 - When standing where you detonated barrel 3, instead of heading straight ahead towards the pick-up truck, head down the path on your left to find the last barrel. It is located close to a basecamp called Hunting Grounds.

Jump off all four high dives. The high dives look like makeshift diving boards. To swan dive, press [spacebar] followed by [C].

Note: There are more than four high dives. Jumping off any four of them will unlock the challenge.

Note: This section of the guide is missing some screenshots. If you have good screenshots it would be great if you shared them.

1/4 - The first crypt is in the abandoned village, the first place you come to when you enter The Hidden City. The crypt is by the lake to the north; the entrance is close to a High Dive - instead of jumping off it, turn around to find the crypt.
[Image coming soon]

2/4 - The second crypt is in the albino capibara territory, aslo near a lake. The entrance to the crypt is close to the challenge tomb in this area. The entrance is close to another High Dive, so climb up and go through a crack in the wall.
[Image coming soon]

3/4 - During "Rebellion lives" (Reach Unuratu's prison cell), after swinging across to the prison and landing by the "The Winged Serpent" mural, instead of following the beacon to the right, climb to the left instead. The crypt entrance is by another mural, "Uturunku, The Ferryman".
