In Hollow Knight: Silksong, the documented route to Hunter’s March begins with a large-ant fight near the prison in the Marrow. Defeat the ant to open the way, then continue through a short stretch of traversal to enter the area. The directions below come from a third-party walkthrough, not official Team Cherry documentation.

Where is Hunter’s March?

Hunter’s March is an area in Hollow Knight: Silksong. Team Cherry describes the game as a journey through an unfamiliar kingdom, with Hornet as its hunter protagonist: Team Cherry’s official game page. The studio’s release announcement says the game is available, and its Steam listing provides storefront corroboration.

The name is not unique to the game: it is also used for a tune and appears in a Smithsonian archival finding aid. In this article, “Hunter’s March” refers to the Silksong area.

How to get to Hunter’s March

  1. Go to the Marrow. Find the room near the prison described in the walkthrough.
  2. Defeat the large ant. The guide says this fight opens the path ahead.
  3. Continue through the newly accessible route. Traverse the short stretch beyond the fight to reach Hunter’s March.

This route is documented in the GameFAQs walkthrough by Nikoartemis, version 0.1.7, updated November 17, 2025. Its directions are third-party guidance and may not reflect later game updates.

What to expect in the first stretch

The walkthrough characterizes Hunter’s March as challenging early in the game. For the initial traversal, it describes striking shells attached to the ceiling to release shards, and using diagonal attacks on red fruits above spikes. In the first room, the fruits can help you climb onto a platform. The guide also notes a climb on the left that leads to a cage containing a flea.

These are specific route details from the same versioned guide, rather than independently verified instructions. If a described object or route does not match your game, check the walkthrough against your current game version: GameFAQs’ Hunter’s March walkthrough.
