Mina the Hollower Bone Beach route through Sandfalls
The Bone Beach route starts before the beach itself. If you are staring at the map and cannot find the path, you are probably looking for Sandfalls first.
-
Step 1
Begin the Bone Beach route from Ossex
Exit Ossex south, then look for the Southern Outskirts path that leads into the cave approach for Sandfalls.
- Southern Outskirts
- East cave
- Puff Plants
- Burrow movement
-
Step 2
Use the Underlab before the Bone Beach push
The Sandfalls approach has enough hazards that saving before the main puzzle makes the Bone Beach route less punishing.
- Save
- Bank Bones
- Refill Plasma
- Check trinkets
-
Step 3
Continue south into the Bone Beach puzzle zone
Once Sandfalls opens, the route becomes a TNT and bomb puzzle rather than a simple walk to Bone Beach.
- Bomb timing
- TNT carts
- Moving platforms
- Short fuses
Mina the Hollower Bone Beach bomb puzzle
The Bone Beach bomb puzzle asks you to move bombs to TNT carts before short fuses run out. Clear one blockage at a time and remember that exploded TNT stays cleared.
| Bone Beach obstacle | What to do | Route tip |
|---|---|---|
| First TNT cart | Use the nearby bomb and moving platform timing | Start with the closest chain reaction so the route opens permanently. |
| Four-cart TNT cluster | Reach the ladder and bomb, then circle toward the cart group | Jump partway where possible to save fuse time. |
| Southeast TNT | Use burrow jumps through quicksand-style movement | If the fuse always expires, you are likely using the wrong bomb source. |
| Central access | Clear enough carts to open the Plasma Vial route | Refill before spending the gate cost. |
| Boss route | Pass the lock and prepare for Major Miner | Switch to survival trinkets if the route drained resources. |
Mina the Hollower Bone Beach Major Miner gate
Major Miner is the Bone Beach boss gate. Treat the fight as a pattern check after a long route, not as a reason to redo the whole area carelessly.
Bone Beach Major Miner attacks
Expect pickaxe fault lines, rock throws, spins, and helpers. The fight punishes panic movement after the long Sandfalls route.
Bone Beach Major Miner counterplay
Use burrow movement to reposition and, when available, turn helpers into damage opportunities instead of letting them overwhelm the arena.
Mina the Hollower Bone Beach cleanup after arrival
After reaching Bone Beach, do not leave immediately. Bone Beach connects to Stomach Mines, the Worm's Back mirror, train routing, and later trinket cleanup.
| Bone Beach cleanup target | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Bone Beach train station | Fast travel makes return trips and trinket cleanup less expensive. |
| Stomach Mines entrance | The next confusing route can start near a sparkly floor by the beached creature. |
| Worm's Back mirror | The Bone Beach mirror is found later on Worm's Back inside a small tent. |
| Route notes | Mark any blocked paths before leaving so fast travel cleanup is useful. |
