Exploration is one of the major activities to complete in the Ghost of Tsushima. The more players explore the map, the more they will find new items and activities to complete. Mostly, these side activities don’t alter the main story of the game, but they sometimes hugely affect Jin’s strengths and fighting abilities by providing him with different boosts. Fox Den is among those locations. 

Fox Dens lead players to get Inari Shrines. These are the locations that Jin should visit to upgrade his charm slots. Therefore, the more you find Inari Shrines, the more active charms Jin can carry during his journey. However, the locations of these shrines are a bit complicated to locate. So, this guide will help you find all the dens on the three islands.

Before we start looking for the Fox Den, some basic information should be given about these locations to make things a bit easier. Fox Dens are homes where foxes live, and as you progress through the game, you will spot a few foxes who will lead you to their dens and eventually help you locate Inari Shrines. All these shrines can be located by spotting the yellow trees scattered around the map.

One interesting thing about these Inari shrines is that players can purchase the ability to track Inari shrines by using technique points. If you spend points, you can have your guiding wind lead you to the shrine. Still, these Shrines are challenging to locate without knowing their exact locations. Therefore, we have discussed the locations of all 49 Fox Dens.
