Favorite non-city location?

[DrunkenMage]

While not in Skyrim, but the game Oblivion. I was often fond of the Colovian Highlands, around my castle Battlehorn. It was a beautiful county around Chorrol.

Chorrol was one of my favorite haunts back in my Oblivion days. Frequented it almost as much as I did the Isles.

 

[sticky runes]

Moss Mother Cavern, and any other cave with lakes and forests inside it. Those sorts of places become intimate bathing spots for me and my spouse.

And the view of the sun setting from Septimus Signus' outpost is stunning.

For me well.... plain west from Whiterun. Also woods a little north from Riften.
I like to turn on all sounds except music. Listening to my footsteps is calming me, and is kinda fun

Shrine to Azura, I went there once at night and the sky was completely clear with the aurora borealis above it. Breath taking moment.

Congrats mr. 4,000!

We (Serana & I) love the forest around Riften, the plains northwest of Whiterun, as well as anyplace very high up so we can see the countryside and enjoy a sunrise or sunset. As well the Aurora Borealis. The Hidden Vale is nice too, Serana always comments on its beauty,( I agree with Raido about the hides there. What point getting any if the coloring is gone?).

 

[raido KASAI]

I always wondered if it was vanilla or something some random mod stuck in. I'll try to go back and find it again and map it.

[edit]
Just looked it up in the wiki and this gives a general idea of where it is:

Yeah I was bummed that they made such a cool texture and you only get to see it for such a brief time. It was kinda like the uber-cool design and render of the Alduin character model which you get to see up close for all of about 5 minutes in the entire game.

I like the courtyard at the College of Winterhold.

Thanks mate. I'll try to find it again tonight. Somehow I always seem to miss it. Haha

I liked that place BEFORE hircine's quest. Afterwards it kind of aggravates me.

It always seems to be a dragon spawn point heaven for me. I have more attacks there than anywhere

I love all of the Rift and its usually the first region that I walk around and 'discover' all the locations. I particularly like the smallish mountain North of Riften (past Shors Stones) and I am so anno that I cant build a beautiful mansion up there! or even a small cottage... Im not fussy, I just want to live in the Rift countryside

Blackreach is amazing ONCE you know your way around. Its annoying the first time you go, but after spending some time there it really does look incredible!

I love the forgotten Vale for the same reason. A huge but really scenic area.

I also like the woods around Falkreath, especially near the DB Sanctuary. Perfect place for ambushes, hunting and... picnics

I've had a few there. It's a pretty easy place to fight them if you use the small doorway to the bridge as a safe haven.

 

[Ritterkreuz]

I enjoy wondering the snowy forests just south of Dawnstar. South of Riften is a great area too.

 

[W'rkncacnter]

I like the Eldergleam Santuary (so long as I don't poke the tree).

Blackreach was amazing the first time through - now I just find it tedious.

Depending on my mood, I'll either force them to land in the courtyard, or use the doorway as a safe haven and fire off some arrows.

Usually though, those blasted wizards get the kill before I can fire a third arrow. Haha

Blackreach is one of those "forever annoying" places for me. [edit] It's a beautiful place, but something about it just wigs me out.

It does have a unique vibe to it. Only place that tops it in creepy, trippy weirdness is Herma-Mora's Apocrypha

After a while within the Aprocrapha (spelling) I started to feel home within that realm. Odd huh?

 

[The Wanderer]

Since basically all of my characters hunt, I love areas like the Whiterun plains and the Rift. I also love Eastmarch.
