How to Get Ancient Lava in Palworld 1.0 — All Sanctuary Locations
Ancient Lava sits in one volcanic sanctuary and nowhere else. Here is every pool, the heat gear and mining level you need, and what the blue lava builds.

The short answer
Every Ancient Lava pool we have mapped sits inside No. 2 Wildlife Sanctuary, on the volcanic terrain near Mt. Obsidian. Bring heat protection and a Pal with Mining level 2 — each pool has 4,500 HP and respawns every 30 minutes. No Pal drops it, and there is no source outside the sanctuary. Four recipes consume it at 30 apiece, including Air Walker Mk II and the Ring of Trust.

What you need to take Ancient Lava
- Work neededMining Lv 2
- Node HP4,500
- Respawn30 min
Mining level decides how fast a node comes apart, and nothing about it is resource-specific — the Pal that clears these fastest clears everything else fastest too. Ranked from the work-suitability data, where Palworld 1.0 raised the ceiling from 7 to 8.
What else is in No. 2 Wildlife Sanctuary
Everything here sits in the same place as the Ancient Lava. If the trip costs you something to make, make it count.

The Ring of Trust needs two sanctuary runs
It takes 30 Ancient Lava from No. 2 and 10 Beautiful Flower, which only grows in No. 1 and No. 2. So that one accessory sends you into restricted ground twice — worth batching with an Ancient Bark trip, since Bark is in No. 1 as well.
