Shortcuts can be found all around Gielinor. By climbing cliff sides, crossing rivers and squeezing through crevices, it is possible to reach a destination more directly than by the alternative route. Nearly all shortcuts require the proper Agility level. There are no guaranteed rewards for using shortcuts, except that they will save you time, but they will sometimes give small amounts of Agility experience. All shortcuts, except for the Asgarnian Ice Dungeon tunnel and Crandor south rocks, are members-only, and some require Ranged and Strength levels. Two-way shortcuts are identified with a twisting green arrow icon () on the minimap, with one-way shortcuts using an inverted arrow icon ().

Agility areas are locations that are locked behind an obstacle with an Agility requirement. There is no standard way to access these locations, although some such as the God Wars Dungeon have an alternative entrance using a different skill.
