From the Legendary Chest, push the plate to the left, jump down below, climb the stairs to the left inside the house and use the spear to the left to swing back down. Don’t slide down the rope.
After using the spear to swing down, follow the path to the left and use the grappling points on the walls and trees to reach the top. Ahead you will find a crane you can turn by hitting the plates around it.
On the other side, under the broken wooden bridge, is the God of War Ragnarok Abandoned Village Nornir Chest.
