The Witcher 3 herbs offer a huge selection to be discovered as you make your way through the journey of The Witcher 3.

It won't cost you any resources to take these items, they weight very little, and so you should pick freely as you quest through the game. Many of these ingredients can help you craft powerful potions and oils, so it's well worth familiarising yourself with their locations.

For this reason, we've put together an easy-to-reference chart of where each and every one of the game's herbs can be picked. If you're after a specific ingredient, simply look down the left-hand list, then go rummaging around in the terrain type indicated next to it.

Always grab a few extra while you're around, as it might just save you an annoying trip later. Once you've gathered enough ingredients to make your recipes, you can start flogging what you pick to make some pretty decent cash.

If you're looking for more assistance, our Witcher 3 walkthrough can help.
