7 secret Fontaine chests in Genshin Impact: Locations and how to get them

You can collect over 300 chests and obtain a ton of free Primogems while exploring Genshin Impact's newly released Fontaine region. But it is worth mentioning that there are some treasures that are hidden and are easy to miss. They do not spawn like other chests in the game and require you to perform special and random tasks, such as killing birds or watching two crabs race by the shore.

This Genshin Impact article will showcase the locations of seven such secret chests in Fontaine, which also include a couple of Precious Chests worth 45 Primogems and a guide on how to obtain them.

For the next secret chest in Genshin Impact, head to the waypoint southeast of the Elynas region. You will find three houses right in front of you after teleporting there. You need to look for five small white birds nearby and kill all of them. One of them can be found near the flowerbed, while the rest can be seen on the roofs.

Do note that one of the birds is on the backside of the house facing the waypoint you used earlier, so there is a chance you might miss it. This will give you another Exquisite Chest, worth five Primogems in Genshin Impact.

Teleport to the west coast of the Elynas Region. You will find a small Hilichurl camp and two crabs racing each other. You just need to witness one of them reach the finish line. This will get you an Exquisite Chest, worth five Primogems in Genshin Impact.

Chest #6

This chest is a bit special and you can only get it in the co-op mode, so ask a friend to visit your world. Next, teleport to the underwater waypoint on the west side of the Fountain of Lucine and then swim toward the east direction. You will find two flowers in the shape of a heart. Stand in front of them with a friend and an Exquisite Chest worth five Primogems will spawn.
