world of Hollow Knight Silksong is packed with hidden areas, and one of the trickiest to find is the Wisp Thicket. Tucked away above Greymoor, this mysterious zone can only be accessed with the Faydown Cloak—the double jump ability you’ll unlock on Mount Fay.
If you’re wondering where Wisp Thicket is in Silksong and what rewards await, this guide will walk you through step by step.

How to Reach Wisp Thicket in Hollow Knight Silksong
Step 1: Head to Greymoor Bellway Station
Begin at the Greymoor Bellway Station and move west until you reach a tall tower. Climb all the way up, then look for a path on the right that connects this tower to another.

Step 2: Climb the Second Tower
Inside the second tower, you’ll find levers that control fans. Hit these levers to activate wind drafts, which Hornet can ride upwards. Continue climbing until you spot a leftward passage.
Step 3: Pogo & Clawline Upwards
From this ledge, glide left and land on a horizontal platform with a fan. Use the Clawline ability to hook onto a point on the left side, then swing up to a small balloon. Bounce from it to gain height, then double jump to grab onto a dangling wall piece.
Step 4: Enter the Hidden Passage
Move left until you see a gap in the floor. Just above it (slightly to the left) is a hidden passageway. Double jump through it to finally enter Wisp Thicket.
What’s Inside Wisp Thicket?
Once you arrive, rest at the bench (dropped by hitting a hanging bag) before exploring. Wisp Thicket doesn’t have a dedicated map, so you’ll need to navigate by memory and landmarks.
Here’s what you’ll find inside:
- Mask Shard: Head to the far right and complete a tough platforming sequence.
- Craftmetal: Located in the upper central area, behind a massive metal gate.
- Boss Encounter – Father of the Flame: On the far left of Wisp Thicket, you’ll face this fiery opponent. Defeating him requires patience and skill—check our Father of the Flame Hollow Knight Silksong guide for detailed strategies.
Can I Reach Wisp Thicket Without the Faydown Cloak in Silksong?
No. The Faydown Cloak (double jump) is mandatory for reaching Wisp Thicket. Without it, Hornet cannot scale the vertical passages or perform the advanced platforming maneuvers required to access the area.
The Wisp Thicket in Hollow Knight Silksong is one of the most rewarding optional areas in the game. With rare items like the Mask Shard and Craftmetal, plus the unforgettable fight against Father of the Flame, it’s well worth the challenge.
If you’ve unlocked the Faydown Cloak, make Wisp Thicket your next stop and prepare for both rewards and danger.
