The Taverley Dungeon is one of the largest dungeons in Old School RuneScape. There are many monsters, ranging from low to high combat levels, getting stronger as players venture deeper into the dungeon. These include poisonous monsters, so bringing antipoison potions is advised if travelling through the parts of the dungeon that contain them. Taverley Dungeon is entirely single combat (although cannons can still attack multiple targets if the player is not in direct combat).

Transportation

The entrance to the dungeon is found south of Taverley and west of Falador. Ways of getting there include:

Layout

First half

Notable features in the first half of the dungeon include:

The chaos druids and their ritual altar.
  • The Cauldron of Thunder, which is used in the Druidic Ritual quest.
  • The Kinshra hideout, which houses Lord Daquarius, who is talked to during Wanted!. Velrak the explorer is confined in a cell and gives a dusty key for players to access the remaining half of the dungeon if they do not have the required Agility levels. Players must kill a jailer to obtain a jail key to enter Velrak's cell.
  • A metal door which bars access to the remaining half of the dungeon, which can only be opened with the dusty key (see above).

Second half

The magic axes in their domain.

The second half of the dungeon contains much stronger monsters. Access to this area requires a dusty key, or at least 70 Agility to use the obstacle pipe. Notable features include:

  • Lava eel fishing spots, which are used during Heroes' Quest if not going to the Lava Maze.
  • Entrance to Cerberus' Lair.
  • The Obelisk of Fire can be found west of the black dragons.
  • The Obelisk of Water can be found above the ladder near the black dragons, leading to an island off the coast of Catherby with the obelisk on it.
