The '''Βάλτο''', also known as the "swamp forest", is populated (at least temporarily) by a village of [[brickmakers]], an old [[Gramps|recluse]], a group of [[druid]]s who live in a beautiful grove, a visiting [[Morenn|dryad]], several [[Lumberjacks' glade|lumberjacks]], a hidden camp of [[Scoia'tael]] and (of course) a host of beasts and monsters. There is also a [[mage's tower|tower]] in the middle of the area, which seems to breed creatures...

: ''"Across the lake from Βίζιμα lies a large area of marshlands which is home to small human communities, but also to various monsters. It is not safe there, even during the day — a [[drowner]] or a [[bloedzuiger]] can spring from the murky water at any moment. The casual traveler should also be mindful of the misleading will-o'-the-wisps, which have a tendency to lure unwary adventurers further and further into the swamp, until they become mired in mud and perish. To reach the swamp, one must hire a ferryman at the Vizima dike in Βίζιμα and take the boat across the lake.''

: ''A group of lumberjacks works deep within the marshlands, making money by selling lumber to Βίζιμαn craftsmen. They are lead[''sic''] by a dwarf named [[Yaren Bolt]], who rules the small community with an iron fist.''

: ''The swamp is home to brickmakers who make their living excavating and firing clay. Theirs is a small, secluded village, where life proceeds at its own pace. A somewhat crazed woman named [[Vaska]] leads them.''

: ''The swamp is a place where man must bow before Nature in all its wild, tangled grandeur. That is why the druids have settled there, establishing a sacred grove with the tree of life at its center. The disciples of Nature allow no violence within the grove, where they tend to sick animals, even taking in wounded [[Δρυάς|dryads]].''

: ''The misty marshes hide many secrets. For example, there is a small clearing where statues of powerful golems are half-buried in the mud as if frozen mid-step. One of them is particularly unsettling, towering ominously over the clearing"''

* [[Τάφρο]]
* There are also [[Teleporter]]s: 
** In [[:Κατηγορία:The Witcher Κεφάλαιο II|Κεφάλαιο II]], after beginning [[A Mysterious Tower]], [[Γκέραλτ]] can use any [[Πεδίο της Δύναμης]] with a [[teleportation crystal|crystal]] from [[Καλκσταιν]] to return to the latter's [[Kalkstein's place|laboratory]].
** In [[:Κατηγορία:The Witcher Κεφάλαιο III|Κεφάλαιο III]] the crystal is returned to Καλκσταιν, so places of power are no longer useful for this purpose, but you gain access to two more locations (Καλκσταιν has installed one in the [[Mage's tower]] and [[Triss]] has one in her [[Triss' house|bedroom]]). If pursuing an association with [[Yaevinn]], you may even unlock a fourth in the [[Ξωτικοειδή ερείπια]].
