The Fortnite Giant Candy Cane locations are part of this week’s challenges. This is the second 14 days of Fortnite challenge, and you’ll have to visit two giant candy canes to complete it. Unlike the Forbidden Dance challenge, there are fewer places you can find candy canes, so you’ll want to look at our Fortnite candy cane locations map so you can plan the best way to complete this task.
Where are the Giant Candy Cane Locations in Fortnite?
Finding the candy canes on the map can be a pain if you’re concentrating on not dying, but they’re reasonably easy to see. They’re giant (of course), and they’re all located high up so you can see them from a distance. Unfortunately, there are only four of them, and they’re kind of far apart. Luckily, you don’t have to visit two giant candy canes in one match. You can get one during one game and get the other during the next match.
You can use the Fortnite candy cane locations map above to easily find your way to completing this challenge. We also go into some detail below to more easily help you to triangulate them.
There are four giant candy canes in Fortnite:
- Directly north of Wailing Woods, you’ll find a candy cane on a mountain.
- There’s another plateau east-southeast of Fatal Fields that has a cane on top of it. It’s the one that looks kinda like a bean on the map.
- If you look in the northeast corner of Shifty Shafts, you’ll find another candy cane on top of a slope.
- Another candy cane is on the mountain directly north of the airstrip at Frosty Flights.
How do I Complete the Visit Two Giant Candy Canes Challenge in Fortnite?
Unlike last week’s Forbidden Dance challenge, there’s nothing special you have to do once you’ve found a giant candy cane. Just walk close to it, and it’ll count towards your goal of visiting two candy canes.
Again, you don’t have to visit both of the canes during the same match. You can visit one, then during the next game (or several matches later) you can visit the other, and you’ll still complete the challenge.
