To get to Deep Docks in Hollow Knight: Silksong, the typical route involves going through the area called The Marrows. After activating a platform in The Marrows, follow the path on the right side to reach Deep Docks. It is often recommended to have progressed past the first boss and possibly gone through Hunter's March as well, since parts of the path to Deep Docks connect through there. Once you enter Deep Docks, you will find things like a rest area with elevators, a vendor to buy the Deep Docks map for 50 Rosaries, and access points to various sub-areas. The general path involves navigating through Hunter’s March or The Marrows and then continuing to the far right side paths where Deep Docks is located. Summary steps:

  • Progress through The Marrows area.
  • Activate the relevant platform in The Marrows.
  • Follow the right-side path leading to Deep Docks.
  • You can optionally go through Hunter’s March, which also connects to Deep Docks.
  • When in Deep Docks, purchase the map from a vendor to help navigate the area.
  • Use elevators and explore the paths leading deep down into the docks.

Additional tips:

  • Some doors in Deep Docks require special keys and abilities (like the “Swift Step” dash ability) to proceed.
  • The area is suited for mid-game progression with hazards and new enemies.

This gives the key wayfinding and preparation advice for getting to Deep Docks in Hollow Knight: Silksong.
