[previous level] | [next level] |
1st Section
The level starts on a stone platform in the middle of the Himalayas in Nepal. Hang from the ledge ahead. Shimmy sideways to the left. Move faster by repeatedly pressing interaction, since the ledge will soon break. At the end pull up and climb onto the highest spot. Slide down the slope in front. At the end jump to reach the other side. Pull yourself up. Then jump ahead to the next gap. Drop down to the lower one. Shimmy sideways to the left and around the corner. At the end jump to the back. Quickly climb to the right, before the ledge breaks. Jump up and pull onto the platform. There run up to the left, over the breaking walkway. At the end jump to the bar. Swing quickly to the next tower, before the bar breaks. Pull up to the top.2nd Section
Secret 1/16:
Hang from the ledge on the other side. Drop down to the gap below and then once more to reach the alcove with the Bronze Reward #1. Collect it. Then jump up to the gap again. Jump up to the top again. This will only work at the sides, since Lara has to press her feet against the wall to jump up.
Secret 2/16:
Hang from the upper ledge and shimmy further to the right. At the end, pull up into the alcove and collect the Silver Reward #1 there. Shimmy back along the ledge.
3rd Section

Secret 3/16:
Before you enter the cave, turn around to the left. There you can see that the ice wall is fragile. If uncertain, scan the area with your binoculars, using RAD mode. Shoot the wall and then jump there. Collect the Silver Reward #2 there. Then jump back to the cave.
4th Section
On this ledge you will find one of the engines, you can move it using the grapple. It's not much use, actually, but you might want to push it down, in case you don't pick up this next secret and want to collect it after collecting the Ghalali Key.Secret 4/16:
Roll past the propeller on the right and step behind the pieces of the plane wreck. Here you can collect the Bronze Reward #2.
Secret 5/16:
Explore the part right of the wreck (when looking down). Climb onto the elevation. Then use the grapple to pull away the parts on the other side. Jump over there. Around the corner to the left you will find the Silver Reward #3. Jump back to the other side after collecting it.

6th Section
Now jump into the scar the plane has left in the snow before you. Lara will slide down to the left. At the end jump towards the bar. This will break, so quickly jump onto the next slide. At the end jump onto the slide leading down to the left. Jump at the end to reach the next part. Use the interaction button to shoot the ice wall at the end. Then slide to the end and jump, at the last moment, onto the next slide. At the end jump to reach the bar. Swing and jump down to the cave mouth there, before the bar breaks away.Secret 6/16:
Run a few meters to the left, then turn around to the left. In the alcove you can see the next Bronze Reward #3. Use the grapple to get it.
7th Section
Follow the passage. Jump towards the platform opposite. There turn right. Jump towards the bar ans swing towards the icy ledge in front. Shimmy to the left and jump past the broken part. Further on the left the ledge will break, so hurry, pressing interaction repeatedly, while shimmying. At the end drop to the lower ledge. Jump backwards to the bar. Swing towards the first icicle. I found the second one useless. Turn you back to the ice platform on the right and jump there. It is pretty shaky so make sure you land in the middle and keep your balance.Secret 7/16:
Try to steady the platform and turn around to face the wall behind the icicles. There you will see the Bronze Reward #4 in a niche. Use the grapple to get it quickly.
Secret 8/16:
Hang from the ledge on the other side and shimmy left. At the end drop down to the lower ledge. Shimmy further left. At the end drop down twice. Shimmy left and pull up into the alcove. Collect the Gold Reward. Then climb back up the way you came.
8th Section
Shoot the mercenaries all around you. Start with the one with the grenade launcher in front on a higher platform. He's the most dangerous of them. You can use the explosive barrels for help, but be careful that they are not used against you. Avoid the pool. The water is too cold to swim in. When all baddies are gone, it's time to look around. Two ice platforms are in the middle of the room, a small one left of the entrance and a larger one opposite. Further there is a platform on the wall at the left side. Behind it is a lake and on the other side of it a cave mouth. On the right are some building parts. At the back wall, between the lake and the buildings is another ice platform.Secret 9/16:
Climb onto the smaller ice platform. Turn towards the left wall. You can shoot it. Jump inside the alcove and collect the Silver Reward #4.
Secret 10/16:
Right of this alcove with the silver reward, between it and the lake you can find the Bronze Reward #5 lying in a corner.
Secret 11/16:
Collect the Bronze Reward #6 lying there.
9th Section
Secret 12/16:
In an alcove on the left you will find the Bronze Reward #7.
Secret 13/16:
Collect the Silver Reward #5 here.
10th Section
Run up and shoot the snow leopard attacking you form the right. Then take a look around. You can run down the stairs. But this won't get you much further. Up in the middle you'll be able to use the grapple.Secret 14/16:
Run down the right staircase and below towards the walkway on the right. At the start you can find a breakable stone wall on the right. Use manual aim to shoot it. In the niche you will find the Silver Reward #6. Run back upstairs.
Secret 15/16:
Run up the left stairs and to the end of the long walkway. There you will find the Bronze Reward #8. Run back down.
Secret 16/16:
Run up the stairs on the right. Here you will find the Bronze Reward #9.
11th Section
Run down the stairs and watch the cut scene in which Lara will reforge the sword Excalibur. After the cut she will carry the sword as a weapon. Now run into the passge down here.12th Section
The door at the end is fragile. You can break it, using Excalibur. But not, as one might expect at first, at close range. So stand back a bit and swing the sword int he direction of the door. Step outside. The floor will start to collapse. Quickly jump over the the platform on the left and then continue ahead. Jump to the right and there run further ahead. On the last platform wait for a short second, till the platform tilts a little. Then quickly jump to the safe platform ahead, before the one below you breaks away.Secrets:1 Gold Reward, 6 Silver Rewards, 9 Bronze Rewards
