Ghost of Yotei: All Duelling Tree locations and duel order

While exploring Ezo in Ghost of Yotei, you’ll discover six special trees known as Duelling Trees. It’s not immediately obvious what they’re for, but the name offers a clue. These trees are actually challenges set by five wandering samurai who consider themselves followers of the legendary Takezo. If you defeat each of them at their respective Duelling Tree, the real Takezo will appear.

Here’s a list of all the Duelling Tree locations in the game, and the order in which you should challenge and defeat each ronin. After completing all the Duelling Trees, check out our recommended build to help you defeat Takezo the Unrivaled – he’s the hardest boss in Ghost of Yotei!
