Elden Ring Mt. Gelmir Guide: Where To Go, Items To Get, And Enemies To Watch Out For

gamespot.com:

In the far Northwest corner of Elden Ring's Lands Between lies the foreboding Mt. Gelmir, home to the most ferocious battles of the Shattering and the domain of Rykard, Lord of Volcano Manor. You'll need to make your way to Volcano Manor at some point in order to defeat the Lord of Blasphemy and claim his shard of the Elden Ring on your quest to become Elden Lord.

Like many other areas of Elden Ring, Mt. Gelmir is not a friendly place. From multiple boss fights to rivers of molten lava, everything on Mt. Gelmir is designed to kill you if you aren't careful. As a result, knowing where to go in order to continue your quest can be tricky. Here's what you need to know to get the most out of your hike up the mountain, including key items to grab along the way.

Getting to Mt. Gelmir on its own is a whole task in and of itself, and there are actually three ways it can be done. Two of these methods involve being teleported to Volcano Manor, which lies at the top of the mountain. To reach the top of Mt. Gelmir by the more traditional method, you'll need to have reached the Altus Plateau. From there, collect the map for the region (found Northeast on the main road from the Grand Lift of Dectus or the Old-Ruin Precipice). Head towards the Minor Erdtree and follow the road around it and to the west, across a bridge with The Shaded Castle below at your right. Keep on this path and eventually you'll come to a rope-bridge, with the Bridge of Inequity Site of Grace on the other side. Congratulations, your journey up Mt. Gelmir is just getting started.

For most of this guide we will assume you took the simpler «climb up the mountain method,» but below are the two other ways for being teleported directly inside Volcano Manor.
