There are 49 journals to collect in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. They’re spread across story areas, optional locations and the Continent; the checklist below groups them by location so you can find entries even when their names have not yet appeared in your Journal screen. Guides associate the complete set with the Follow the Trail achievement. PowerPyx, Push Square and Gamer Guides each list 49 entries.

Before you start: journal tracking and prerequisites

  • Check the Journal screen to see collected entries, but don’t rely on it as a complete list of what remains: entries you have not found may not be displayed. Use the location checklist below to track unknown entries.
  • Several journals depend on story progress, optional areas, traversal abilities or defeating a boss. If a route or landmark is inaccessible, return when you have progressed further or gained the required ability.
  • The Survivor journal is behind a gate in Old Lumiere that requires the Old Key. Guides place the key in the Prologue; if you are past that point without it, check your inventory and current-version game behavior before assuming the journal is permanently missable.

Location directions below follow published guides; availability and exact traversal can depend on your progress. PowerPyx, Push Square, Gamer Guides.

Named and Unknown journals

These entries are easy to overlook if you’re checking only the names currently visible in the menu. The descriptions in parentheses identify the Unknown journals by their opening words.

  • Verso — Continent: Fly to the raised area west of Forgotten Battlefield. The journal is behind the enemies; Julie is on the same platform.
  • Aline — The Monolith, Tainted Battlefield: At the tombstone split, take the Manor door on the left branch and search the room.
  • Renoir — Old Lumiere, Manor Gardens: Enter the Manor through the broken wall near the flag. Find the journal on a bedroom table.
  • Unknown (“people come and people go”) — The Canvas: Obtain the Manor Family Canvas and place it in the Manor’s empty frame. Enter the room that opens at the end of the hall.
  • Unknown (“art can be a Window”) — Visages, Anger Vale: Take the first cave path on the right and enter the Manor. Continue into the next room; the journal is by the bed.
  • Unknown (“You speak to me of perfection”) — The Reacher, Ladder Area: Follow the right-hand path near the burnt-looking Orphelins to the Manor door.
  • Survivor — Old Lumiere, Left Street: After the first enemy, go through the hole beside the pipe. Unlock the gate behind you with the Old Key to reach the journal.
  • Julie — Continent: On the raised, fly-accessible platform west of Forgotten Battlefield, beside the tents and near Verso.
  • Simon — The Abyss / Renoir’s Drafts: Defeat Simon, then collect the journal beside the place where he was sitting.

Expedition journals by location

The numbered expedition entries below are grouped by area rather than journal number, making it easier to clear a region while you are there. The list includes numbers that skip between locations; use the journal identifier as written, not a consecutive count.

What to check if you are missing one

  • Missing a named entry? Check the nine named and Unknown locations first; their uncollected names may not appear in the Journal screen.
  • Can’t reach a listed area? Some locations require flying, swimming, Esquie, a story unlock or an optional-area route. Revisit after gaining access rather than treating the entry as absent.
  • Finished Old Lumiere but lack Expedition 42 or 58? Expedition 42 is on a return path that opens after completing the area; Expedition 58 is awarded after completing the main area and returning to camp.
  • Still short after visiting every listed area? Recheck the local landmarks and prerequisites in the relevant entry. The list contains 49 journals overall, but some are automatic rewards and others sit behind optional interactions, boss fights or gates.
