Disney Dreamlight Valley – How to lower the log near the waterfall

How do you lower the log near the waterfall in Disney Dreamlight Valley?

This is a new problem facing players in the game’s April 2023 update, which adds a new Lion King realm.

In this new area, you meet Nala, who wants you to help her find Simba. At one point, however, you see a log high up on a cliff and are asked to knock it down.

This guide will tell you exactly how to do it – and don’t worry, it’s easier than you think.

This particular puzzle appears in the Eyes in the Dark mission, in the Lion King realm.

After befriending Nala and helping her make her way through the cave, you’ll come to an area with a stream and a waterfall.

This area has a large log sitting on top of a cliff edge, and Nala asks you to knock it down to create a bridge that will help you find Simba.

It’s not immediately clear how to do this, because the game’s only instruction is: “Find a way to lower the log near the waterfall.”

This may cause you to run around looking for all manner of objects or passageways to take you up to the log so you can knock it down, but in reality the solution is very easy (well, when you know what it is, of course).

Simply take out your pickaxe and walk over to the rocky section lying at the bottom of the cliff, right underneath the log.

If your pickaxe is equipped, some of these rocks will glow when you get near them, meaning you can mine them to break them.

This makes the log drop, creating the bridge, and you can then continue your journey.
