Red Dead Redemption 2 is probably one of the best games of the last 20 years. It presents players with outstanding combat mechanics, a memorable, masterfully crafted narrative, and thousands of things to do throughout the 19th-century United States era. There are many ways to make infinite money in the game, hunt down legendary beasts, and even make bait to catch them.

Some ingredients to make bait and other preparations are easy to find, whereas others, like the Wintergreen Berries, are hard to come by and spot in the middle of the foliage. Here’s where to find Wintergreen Berries in Red Dead Redemption 2.

Where To Get Wintergreen Berries In RDR2

One of the first places where you can find Wintergreen Berries is in the Cumberland Forest near Valentine. The area is very wide and there's a lot of foliage, so even if you know the exact location of every Wintergreen Berry, it will still take you a while to find the right spot and collect them. Ideally, you'll want to go to the area during the day so that you're not struggling as much to identify the right berries and pick them up. If you've never picked Wintergreen Berries before, their name will not appear as such and will instead say “Berries”. After picking them up, your Compendium will be updated and the next time you see another one, it will be properly named.

Red Dead Redemption 2 - Big Valley Wintergreen Berry Locations

Another great spot to find Wintergreen berries is in the Big Valley area next to Strawberry in West Elizabeth state. You can get there through various different means. However, if you've already unlocked fast travel, you can simply travel to Strawberry and then ride for a couple of minutes until you reach the spots marked in the picture above. The Wintergreen Berries in this area are just as tricky to spot, if not more, than the ones in the Cumberland Forest, so make sure to keep your eyes open and, again, try to go during the day. To make waiting until daytime more comfortable, try skipping time. Wintergreen Berries can also be found in New Hanover, but Cumberland Forest and Big Valley are more convenient given how early the neighboring areas can be explored.

What Are Wintergreen Berries Used For?

Wintergreen Berries can be sold for $0.25 each, and they’re also an ingredient to make Potent Predator Bait, which is great for attracting animals that are of higher quality than those attracted by the regular Predator Bait. Picking these berries also contributes to the achievement “Picked to Perfection”, which requires players to pick 25 herbs.
