The Map
The Moominvalley Map contains all locations of interest for the achievements:

  • Starting points of side quests which result in getting achievements, but are not necessary to complete the game.
  • Masterpiece pages locations.
  • Singing birds locations.
  • Woodpecker locations.
  • Bee locations.
  • Item locations for the stamina achievement.
  • Gazing spots.

Additionally, the Hattifatteners Island map contains locations of the remaining Masterpiece pages, the gazing spot, and one side quest location.
Main Quest (and nearby)
These achievements are easily unlocked while following the story, although many of them are actually skippable.

Not a Monster
After encountering Sniff and Spider on the way to Moominvalley and attacking Spider with the bird, talk to Spider again; he will (indirectly) ask for a butterfly. Continue down the path just a bit until you see one, then play harmonica to lead it back to Spider. You will talk to Spider again and unlock the achievement.
Fast, not Furious
In the night forest, when Groke is chasing you, make sure to not be caught by it once. Just follow the path, and use sprinting when available.
Fire Fighter
Another achievement in the night forest level. When the fire starts, lead Groke to all flames you see. Make sure not to miss any: it is technically possible to pass this section and not put out all the fires for the achievement.
Push it
Achievement requires to knock down every statue in every park. There are statues only in two parks:

Three can be found in the first park (after the very small tutorial one) on the way to Moominvalley:

Seven more statues are in the park on the Hattifatteners Island: a key is hidden under one of them, so you really only need to knock statues until you find it. For the achievement though, knock down all seven.

Wreaking Havoc
After returning to the valley from the island, the main quest will continue at the Park Keeper's house. To obtain the achievement, you must interact with everything in the yard to mess it up.
Appetite for Destruction
The theater quest will lead you to Fillyjonk's house, but she refuses to go outside and help. To get her out, interact with everything in the yard. Don't forget the clothes drying outside: walk into them to put dirt on them:
Side Quests
These side quests do not have to be completed to finish the game, but do result is extra achievements (and, frankly, are quite fun, since through those you get to interact with the legendary Moomin characters the most!)

To the Rescue
Find Sniff at the entrance to the cave (see the S mark on the map). You will need to complete the night forest first to unlock flute, as well as reach level 4 of inspiration. Finishing this quest is required for the Deep Down achievement
                                                              
Deep Down
Find Little My in the well near the tree house where Snorkmaiden is (see the m mark on the map). She will ask to bring her a new toy, which happens to be Sniff's reward for completing his side quest. In exchange, you will get a Masterpiece page.
                                                              
Garment Grabber
Find Ninny the Invisible Child on the beach, north of where Too-ticky is (see the N mark on the map). The area is only available after completing the night forest and unlocking the flute. To complete the quest, you will also need to do Hattifatteners Island and unlock the drum first.
                                                              
Beauty for Beauty
Find Primadonna's Horse on the Hattifatteners Island (see the H mark on the island map). She will ask for something as beautiful as her, and we bring her her own reflection by finding a mirror in a sand pile just a little bit down the path. You fill need level 6 inspiration to dig it out.
                                                              
Artist's Assistant
Find Hemulen Painter in the lower area south of the tree house and the well (see the H mark on the map). The quest requires finding three puddles in the area, and as a reward, you will get a Masterpiece page.
                                                              

Another important side quest is the one of Snorkmaiden: it does not have an achievement of its own, but you get a Masterpiece page as a reward, and you need it for the Pages of Genius achievement. You can find Snorkmaiden at the tree house (clearly detectable on the map). She asks to find her anklet, which is in a birds nest in the fern area near where Snork is (it is also the same place where you can find a Masterpiece page and a chanterelle). Play harmonica to briefly chase the bird away and quickly grab the item before the bird returns.

These three side quests do not result in the achievement of their own, nor do they help you in collecting Masterpiece pages, but I am including them for the sake of Conversationalist achievement which requires talking to every creature in the game, and also just for completeness. Since Conversationalist only requires talking to a creature, you don't even have to complete the quests if you are only interested in achievements; and the third quest can be ignored in full, since you will have already met and talked to Spider by the time this quest is available.
Make a Heart Flutter: Find Hemulen Bug Collector just South of the Muskrat's campfire and West of the fern area leading up to the treehouse and the well. He will ask you to bring him three butterflies, which you can find in the flower field just over the bridge North of the Hemulen's location; the flower field is also South of the theater.
Stuck in a Tree: Help Toffle get down from the tree by calming the bees with your flute. You can find Toffle near the treehouse.
A Small Gesture: Spider is back at it again! You will find him blocking mice's path to their home on your way down to the area where Hemulen Painter is. And this time, even no butterfly will have to be sacraficed!



Arguably another side quest achievement is Muskrat's Run for the Hills, but that one requires a bit more exploration than the other ones, and so has it's own section.
Run for the Hills (Muskrat's Stamina Achievement)
This achievement requires finding three sets of three ingredients for the stew that Muskrat is making by the campfire, see the M mark on the map. The locations of the ingredients are also noted on the map, and here are some screenshots for how these items look in game in case you have some trouble finding them.

Note that if your inspiration is high enough, you can get most of these ingredients after the night forest level, except one seaweed that is locked behind a sand pile, so you need the drum to get it. Meaning, you can level up your stamina twice pretty early on in the game!

Bees and birds achievements
This section covers three achievements:
Keeper of Bees
Find three bees and lead them to their hives using harmonica (level 1):
  • The bee near Muskrat's campfire.
  • The bee near Little My's well.
  • The bee in the forest area right after the second park in the Moominvalley.
Humming in Harmony
Find four songbirds and play harmonica for them (level 1):
  • The songbird in the prologue as you are approaching the Moominvalley, just before the first anthill in the game. Make sure to collect this one, as you will not be able to go back here later on!
  • The songbird in the area between Muskrat's campfire and the entrance to the first park.
  • The songbird just a bit north of Snorkmaiden's treehouse.
  • The songbird in the forest area right after the second park in the Moominvalley.
Wooden Symphony
Find three woodpeckers and play drum for them (level 5):
  • The woodpecker in the area leading up to Sniff's Cave.
  • The woodpecker near the waterfall area where Snork is.
  • The woodpecker just above the area where the Hemulin Painter is.

The in-game screenshots of the mentioned locations:



I do not provide the beehives locations, but they are always very close to the bees, and most of the time you have to go up to find it.
Just Gazing and Sightseer
There are four gazing spots in the game.
The pier which you can find very early on in the game, before the very first park of the game (except the tutorial one), and before reaching the Moominhouse. If you somehow missed it you can still go back there at any point you are exploring the valley.
The stone structure in the waterfall area where Snork is, to the West of the waterfall to be precise.
The stone structure to the right of the treehouse.
The stone structure on top of the barrel area of the Hattifatteners Island.

Additionally, there are several vistas (eight, according to the save files) which are not specially marked in the game.
The vista very close to the start of the game in the 'prologue' location, not on the map. Be sure not to miss it, since you cannot go back here!
The vista that is also the game title, unskippable.
Upon approaching the Moominhouse, there is the view of the bathing-house (Too-Ticky's house) and the beach.
The vista in one of the rooms of the Sniff's Cave.
The vista next to the gazing spot on the Hattifatteners Island.
The bridge on the Hattifatteners Island.
When exploring the cave on Hattifatteners Island, you will at some point go outside, just to go down and back into the cave. This is the location of this vista.
The vista in the West part of the Moominvalley on the way to Fillyjonk's house.
Pages of Genius
For probably the most involved achievement in the game, we list all the places and quests where the pages can be found.

Pages from Side Quests (3/17)
There are three pages you obtain for completing the side quests of Little My, Snorkmaiden, and Hemulen Painter. See the Side Quests section of the guide for more information on those.

Pages from Moominvalley (9/17)
Nine pages are found across the Moominvalley.
1. The page near the entrance to Sniff's Cave.
2. You find the page in the waterfall above the area where Snork is. Play harmonica to move the fish, and then go down to collect the page further down the stream.
3. The page in the nook in the forest area behind the first park in the valley; this is the same nook where you can find a cep and a chanterelle, locked off by a dirt pile.
4. The page in the fern area near the waterfall where Snork is. There is also a chanterelle nearby, and the bird nest where Snorkmaiden's anket can be found.
5. One page is in the area West of the waterfall; to get there the first time, you will need to start in the fern area near where Snork is on the East side of the waterfall, go up, and do some climbing from there. Once you start making your way down on the other side, the page will be there.
6. After getting out of Sniff's Cave as a result of completing his side quest, you will make your way back to the mainland across some stones. The page will be on that path.
7. The page hidden under a sand pile in the South part of the beach.
8. The page in the East of the tree house and the well area where Snorkmaiden and Little My are.
9. The page on the theater stage.


Pages from Hattifatteners Island (5/17)
The remaining pages are found on the island. Pay attention! You cannot go back to the island once you return to the valley, so make sure to get everything before leaving.
Also note that you will need inspiration level 6 to get to the fifth page on this list, so it's best to make sure you are at least level 5 before even going to the island. It is possible to reach level 6 before leaving for the island, it might require exploring the Moominvalley a bit more.
1. The page in the East part of the island. To get to it, go up and let a barrel through. Go back and use the barrel to make the jump.
2. The page in the barrel area, where you need to find three barrels to proceed further into the island. Make sure to explore this delta well to not miss it.
3. The page in the area under the big bridge, which is also one of the vistas for the Sightseer achievement. At this point, you will be looking for two creeps to help you get to the bridge, but explore the area a bit first.
4. The page inside the cave on the way to the pirate ship.
5. The page on the starting beach, which you can only get to once you unlock the drum (that happens after destroying the park on the island). So once you get back to Moominpapa's boat with a sail, don't leave immediately, go over the beach once again. There are no sandpiles of note after the telescope, so you don't have to do an extra lap around the entire island.

Other achievements
In this section we briefly cover the final three achievements that you work towards over the course of the game and it does not make sense to point out any specific locations.

Fern Inferno
Once you unlock the drum by completing Hattifatteners Island, you can play it around ferns to trample them down to avoid having to walk very slowly through them, not to mention the occasional inspiration points you can get. To get the achievement, play the drum on every fern you see, and it will be unlocked after doing so on 50 bushes. Two major fern areas are in the forest in the North-West part of the Moominvalley near the waterfall where Snork is, and also just a little West of the tree house, specifically the location where Stinky is if you are doing Ninny's Garment Grabber side quest. There are no ferns growing on the Hattifatteners Island, so if you are still missing ferns you only need to focus on the Moominvalley.
Conversationalist
The achievement asks to talk to the following creatures: Teety-Woo, Muskrat, Sniff, Spider, Police Officers (both in tutorial park and upon entering the night forest), Duck (with the key), Moominmamma, Moominpappa, Little My, Sea Creature (when retrieving rope for the raft), Hedgehog from the night forest, Too-Ticky, Ninny (only after she introduces herself), Ghost from a park in the Moominvalley, Snork, Cedric (Sniff's toy friend), Hemulen Plant Collector (on the Hattifatteners Island), Moomintroll, the Park Keeper, Primadonna's Horse, Hemulen Bug Collector, Toffle, Stinky, Snorkmaiden, the Park Keeper's Cousin, Fillyjonk, and Hemulen Painter. Most of the creatures are either integral to the story or have quests for you, so as long as you do all of them the achievement should unlock. Check the Side quests section of the guide to make sure you are not missing any side quests.
Bursting with Inspiration
Reach the maximal level of inspiration, which is 8. Make sure to explore every nook and cranny of the locations you find yourself in, especially the story-specific levels like the prologue, Hattifatteners Island or the night forest since you cannot go back there once you are done with them. There are often little spots just outside the screen that have a bunch of bushes with inspiration points or such. Play drum on dandelions you see around the valley for extra points. And of course, the main source of inspiration is completing quests.
Video Walkthrough
In this video I show how to get all the achievements, please refer to it if you have trouble finding some collectables or such. There are timestamps in the description of the video on youtube for convenience.

Conclusion
Thank you for using my guide! I am pretty confident in everything I've written here, but in case something is unclear (I imagine some location descriptions must be), please leave a comment, and I will try to help you and then edit the guide accordingly.

@einzwitterion Thank you very much for coming down here and saying so, I appreciate it! :) Have a nice day!

Thanks for the fantastic, detailed guide. I can tell you put a ton of work into this!

@Pirtu Thank you for your kind words, glad it could help! I am not sure what you mean by "achievement for doing everything" though, I don't think this game has one like that? Looking at the achievements on your profile, the one you are missing is Fast not Furious, for successfully escaping Groke. I'd suggest restart the game and make sure this one gets triggered?

Great guide! I was struggling to find the last woodpecker. So annoying I've achieved everything but the achievement for doing everything 🥲 idk if I broke the game.

thank you!!

Hey @Bruce1988 ! If we want to get the rest of the achievements, we'll have to begin a new game. The good news is that the achievements add up, so we won't have to start from scratch :steamhappy:

@Bruce1988 Thank you for reading! On the version I played, yes, it was impossible to go back to the island once you leave. I have not been following updates and patches, so maybe it is possible now? I would have to check.
Bruce1988 May 27, 2024 @ 2:25am 
Thanks for this guide.

Do we need a new game if we have skip something on Hattifatteners island?
