Lingonberry Leather in Grounded 2 can be used to make high-grade armor and equipment upgrades that firmly cement the player's presence in the second act of the game. Grounded 2 pushes players to obtain this important resource, but gives no easy clues about where it's found, or where you should start looking.

By this point in the game you've probably been out looking for Grounded 2 Blueberry Leather and, in most cases, the principle of getting Lingonberry Leather is the same, with two important distinctions: the fact that it grows in different locations, and that you'll need a better tier of axe to harvest it.

Lingonberry locations in Grounded 2

Lingonberries in Grounded 2 are reliably found at the Northern Border of the map in Pine Hill. Specifically, you need to go into the hedge along the park border. Some Lingonberries will have fallen, others will need to be knocked down with weapon attacks, but the bush is full of them (as well as some pests like Larvae). There's also a fair amount of Grounded 2 Acorns around this location too, if you need them.

However, you'll need a level 2 axe! Unlike Blueberries, which can be chopped up by a basic axe, you will need a Grounded 2 Omni-Tool upgrade to get the level 2 version before you can harvest Lingonberries. Make sure you're set up and ready to go with what you need and, depending on how far away your base is, make sure you're equipped with one of the Grounded 2 mounts so it doesn't take you forever to travel there.

Lingonberry Chunks in Grounded 2 are converted into Lingonberry Leather in the exact same way that Blueberries can be, though you need to analyze them first.

There are two methods of making Lingonberry Leather in Grounded 2:

Take it to a Workbench. Three Lingonberry Chunks can be transformed into one piece of Leather via your workbench. It's immediate, but pretty wasteful compared to the alternative.
Hang chunks on a Jerky Rack. Though a rack can only hold three objects at a time and it takes several in-game hours, hanging Lingonberry Chunks converts them into Leather at a one-to-one ratio.

So, overall the process of making Lingonberry leather in Grounded 2 isn't overly complex. You'll just need to make sure you've upgraded your axe and be prepared to probably travel a fair distance to the northern part of the map.

Make sure you know how to get the essentials, like Grounded 2 Grass Seeds. Or if your friends are joining your game and you need another mount for them, we've got a refresher on where to get Grounded 2 Red Soldier Ant Eggs for the hatchery.
