How do I get to the castle on Mt Gelmir?

[River Victor]

Topic. I’ve found several ways onto the mountain but none reached the castle that I can see. I came from the Seething River and ended up at the peak with the Alien Bull. I came from West Altus and ended up at corpse stenched shack and the dead end. Is there a way around that I don’t know or is it limited to quests?

You can find the way at the peak where the alien bull is

There is a way there, but cant recall at the moment, i think it was on the lower area?

You actually end up fighting a boss right before reaching it.

If you killed the Star Beast or Whatever there is a ledge on the right side of the arena you drop down onto

The castle (Volcano manor) is a bit of a nuisance to get to. You have to approach it from the bottom layer of Mount Gelmir, entering from southwest Altus. If you go through the cracks deep enough, you should come across a fort with a Magma Wyrm just left of him, thats how you know your going the right direction. Eventually youll make your way higher up the mountain and have to fight a fully grown fallingstar beast. After killing him, traverse a couple of rocks and youll see volcano manor, with the map fragment being practically next to it

Btw, for future easier access, do Rya's little quest in Liurna, if you do, she will be waiting at Atlus Plateu (where, depends on which point you accessed first, either the secret tunnel or the lift) and will teleport you directly to the mansion.

Thanks, everyone. That was quick.
