Hollow Knight: Silksong
Silksong Bilewater map location
Joel Franey
15 September 2025
The map for Bilewater in Silksong is located a little way in, past the fast travel point

The Bilewater map in Silksong is hard to locate, as it’s hidden about halfway through the region in a little dead end with little sense of direction up until that point. Bilewater itself is arguably one of the nastiest locations in all of Hollow Knight Silksong, with a mixture of silk-draining poison water and dangerous exploding insects, so having the Bilewater map to understand where you’ve been and where you’re going is a lifesaver. Here’s how you find it.
How to get the Bilewater map in Silksong
(Image credit: Team Cherry)
The Bilewater map in Silksong is sold by Shakra at the location marked on the map above, but you won’t be able to get it without the Silksong double jump ability. Once you get to the location shown on the image below, marked by little metal rings in the wall above, you need to jump up and across to the right, following the rings to Shakra’s location.

Shakra sells it for 90 Rosaries, but it’s very hard to make that within Bilewater itself, as none of the enemies drop Rosaries for you to use. If you’ve opened the Fast Travel station and can access the Silksong Bell Beast from this region, I recommend heading to somewhere that’s got good Silksong Rosary farming and coming back later with the intention to clear out Shakra’s stock.

Bilewater itself is an entirely optional area, featuring a brutal boss with deadly runback at the top of the region, but those going for the game’s secret ending will have to master this area. Best of luck to you…

Guides Writer
Joel Franey is a writer, journalist, podcaster and raconteur with a Masters from Sussex University, none of which has actually equipped him for anything in real life. As a result he chooses to spend most of his time playing video games, reading old books and ingesting chemically-risky levels of caffeine. He is a firm believer that the vast majority of games would be improved by adding a grappling hook, and if they already have one, they should probably add another just to be safe. You can find old work of his at USgamer, Gfinity, Eurogamer and more besides.

GAME REVIEWS
MOVIE REVIEWS
Lego Voyagers review: “A carefully crafted, playful, and earnest adventure”
There’s now a real version of the Witcher Gwent card game, and it’s just as engrossing as the original
Borderlands 4 review: “Undeniably an excellent looter shooter, but one that requires a bit of tunnel vision to fully enjoy”
This enormous exploration board game won’t be for everyone, but it’s a masterclass in narrative and sandbox gameplay
Hollow Knight Silksong review: “Worth the wait and then some, this isn’t just more Hollow Knight but an evolved, spindly beast all its own – even if it’s fiddly at times”
The Conjuring: Last Rites review: “Not bold or memorable enough for the Warrens’ final chapter”
Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle review: “Roars past Mugen Train as Demon Slayer’s best adventure yet”
The Long Walk review: “One of the best Stephen King adaptations ever made”
Frankenstein review: “A classy, if somewhat safe, adaptation”
The Fantastic Four: First Steps review: “An occasionally thrilling heroic adventure that sits safely within a B-tier MCU range”
Wednesday season 2 part 2 review: “Ortega shines, but it’s a zombie who steals the entire show”
Peacemaker season 2 review: “Darker and sadder than the first year, but there’s still a lot of fun to be had with the 11th Street Kids.”
Wednesday season 2 part 1 review: “Complex and exciting but weighed down by too many subplots”
Alien: Earth review: “Arguably the franchise’s strongest outing since James Cameron’s Aliens”
King of the Hill season 14 review: “Hank Hill himself has evolved into a much more open and accepting person”
