  • From the Emerald Grove head west across the bridge and through the Blighted Village until you reach the Goblin Camp (marked above)
  • At the gates to the camp, you can either talk, sneak, or fight your way in - fighting will make everything here much harder, so we suggest one of the alternatives
  • Make your way north through the Goblin Camp and into the Shattered Sanctum

  • Navigate to the back right side of the Shattered Sanctum (marked above) near the three Sharp Eye goblins
  • Enter the door into the Worg Pens
  • At the back right of this area, there is a bear in a cage - this is Halsin

After coming across Halsin in the cage, a dialogue scene will begin where you have a few options available to you. 

You can fight the Goblins directly to free him or trick them into opening the door, so he attacks them with you, but it's worth noting the Baldur's Gate 3 Halsin location is well guarded. Alternatively, you can attack Halsin if you're doing an evil playthrough, though he's more of an asset when he's on your side.

From here, the choice for how to proceed is up to you, as he will give you information vital to the main story that lets you leave without him, but you can continue to help him in a few ways.

So, that's all there is to know about how to find Halsin in Baldur's Gate 3. For more Baldur's Gate 3 guides, stick with GGRecon. We've also covered how to finish the Masterwork Weapon quest in Baldur's Gate 3.
