How to complete the ‘Search Chilly Gnomes’ Fortnite challenge – Locations and guide

Ross Deason

One of the more interesting challenges for Week 6 of Season 7 in Fortnite Battle Royale requires players to ‘search Chilly Gnomes’ that can now be found around the map.

The official challenges went live on Thursday, January 10, and include everything from dealing damage with different weapons to throwing an Ice Puck 150 meters or more. In this guide, though, we’ll be concentrating on Chilly Gnomes.

The task is simple – locate seven Chilly Gnomes and ‘search’ them, which basically means you have to interact with it like you would with a chest or supply drop.

The gnomes have been frozen in cubes of ice.

The only really tricky part is finding the Chilly Gnomes in the first place. They’re well hidden and could easily be missed if you don’t know what you’re looking for. Once you’re close enough, though, you should hear a giggling noise that makes their position easier to pinpoint.

With that in mind, we’ve put together a map of all the Chilly Gnome locations that we’ve found and been made aware of so far. The map will be updated if we find more gnomes, but the locations shown are enough to get the job done.

Remember to complete any game where you’ve searched a Chill Gnome. If you leave before being eliminated (or winning the match) your challenge progress might not be saved.
