The chill is back in Forza Horizon 6, and with the arrival of Series 2’s Winter season, the digital landscape is ripe for some frosty treasure hunting. This week’s challenge takes drivers deep into the snowy wilderness of the Sotoyama region, where players are tasked with finding a hidden cache surrounded by snow—a hunt that promises both icy thrills and serious rewards.
If you think driving through mountains is challenging enough in a winter setting, prepare for some real navigational gymnastics. The location for this week’s Festival Playlist Treasure Hunt chest is nestled right next to a small wooden hut tucked away in the snowy hills of the far north of the region. This spot is practically at the very edge of the map, just shy of the Alpine Heights danger sign and the Off Piste wristband event.
Reaching the prize requires a little backcountry grit. Drivers must navigate up the snow-covered mountains in the north, northeast of Sotoyama, before heading up that off-shooting road to locate the hidden wooden hut. The final step? A calculated crash into the Treasure Hunt chest to claim your loot and complete the challenge.
For a brief two-minute diversion, the payoff is significant. Completing this quest rewards players with 3 Festival Playlist points, 5,000 XP, and a whopping 100,000 credits. These points are essential for unlocking exciting Series 2 rewards, including the sleek 1993 Porsche 911 Turbo S Leichtbau and the elegant 2018 Lotus Exige Cup 430.
But the bounty doesn’t stop there. The winter theme also unlocks a lineup of exclusive Winter cars up for grabs, allowing players to add some serious horsepower to their garage. These includes the rugged 2006 Dodge Ram SRT-10 and the iconic 2003 Ford F-150 SVT Lightning—two similarly powerful machines ready for snowy adventures. It’s a perfect blend of rugged exploration and high-performance reward, proving that sometimes the coldest places hold the warmest treasures.
