If you’re stuck staring at an unreachable cliff or a vine-covered wall, you’re missing the Grappling Hook in Green Hell. This key item opens up large sections of the rainforest map and is required to reach late-game locations. Below is a clean breakdown of where to find it in every mode and how to use it properly.
Where to find the Grappling Hook in Story Mode
In Story Mode, the Grappling Hook is located inside the Illegal Gold Mine, a major narrative location you’ll reach naturally as the story unfolds.

You access the mine by traveling through a cave system that includes an elevator and a generator area. After descending deeper into the mine complex, you’ll find the Grappling Hook resting on a table inside one of the interior rooms. You cannot miss it if you fully explore the mine’s main structures.
How to reach the Illegal Gold Mine
- Progress through the main storyline until you are directed toward the gold mining operation
- Enter the cave system connected to the mine
- Use the elevator sequence inside the cave
- Explore the interior buildings to locate the item
Once picked up, the Grappling Hook is permanently added to your character and never breaks or degrades.
Where to find the Grappling Hook in Survival Mode
In Survival Mode, the Grappling Hook is available much earlier and is placed in the open world.
You’ll find it near the Overturned Jeep, a recognizable landmark surrounded by scattered supplies. This location is commonly used as an early-game navigation point, making the Grappling Hook accessible without story progression.
What to look for
- An overturned vehicle with visible tracks
- Lootable supplies nearby
- The Grappling Hook is lying close to the wreck area

Because Survival Mode has no fixed narrative path, grabbing this item early dramatically expands where you can travel.
