Olympus Caves

Mapped caves for Olympus — numbered IDs where the atlas has them, otherwise grid cells. Click a row to jump the map. Cave filters on the map and in this list stay in sync: Small, Medium, Large/Mega, Deep Ore and Water.

Icarus Cave Locations by Map

Every Icarus map has its own caves. Each card shows live atlas counts for that region — mapped caves, size mix, water and deep ore — then links the cave map or the full region page.

Olympus

Olympus Cave Locations

Mapped Caves: 156Small: 84Medium: 59Large / mega: 13With deep ore: 85Water: 128

Olympus packs Forest, Desert and Arctic ground, with caves along rocky shelves, mountain shoulders and cliff lines rather than open flats. The counts on this card are live atlas totals for this region — including unnumbered entrances listed by grid.

Icarus cave locations on Olympus use in-game IDs such as R-17 when the atlas has one; otherwise the list shows the grid cell. Open a marker for size, ore counts, water and notes before you drop.

Prometheus

Prometheus Cave Locations

Mapped Caves: 274Small: 98Medium: 150Large / mega: 6With deep ore: 168Water: 80

Prometheus carries a dense cave network from the New Frontiers region, so checking Icarus Prometheus map cave locations is a common stop before a long run. Live counts below cover numbered IDs and grid-only pins.

Icarus caves on Prometheus pair well with Deep Ore and Exotic markers when you chain underground stops. Stay here to compare regions, or open the Prometheus map page for the full location set on that drop.

Styx

Styx Cave Locations

Mapped Caves: 180Small: 82Medium: 83Large / mega: 15With deep ore: 95Water: 130

Styx has its own cave network, including shoreline and underwater routes players often mark before committing a drop. Switch the cave map to Styx to plot entrances by ID or grid.

Open a marker for size, ore counts and details such as water. For Styx missions and every location type beside caves, continue on the Styx map page.

Elysium

Elysium Cave Locations

Mapped Caves: 256Small: 101Medium: 154Large / mega: 1With deep ore: 187Water: 93

The Elysium cave map covers entrances across the region so you can plan Icarus caves on Elysium the same way as on Olympus or Prometheus. Counts include numbered caves and grid-only pins from the atlas.

Use this page when you only need caves; open the Elysium map page when you also want missions and the wider set of locations for that drop.

How to Find Caves in Icarus

In open-world prospects, caves often sit near rocky outcrops, mountains and cliffs. Scan those landforms first, then confirm the entrance on the interactive map instead of combing every biome on foot.

On this cave map, pick Olympus, Prometheus, Styx or Elysium above and leave Caves on. Search an in-game cave ID when you already have one, or a grid cell such as J7 when a guide gave you coordinates. Turn on Show Grid for the A–P / 1–16 layout while you move the cursor.

Use the cave filters beside the map — Small, Medium, Large/Mega, Deep Ore, Water — then open a marker for ID, grid, size, ore counts and notes. Mark it found when cleared so the next loop stays cleaner. Click any row in the list under the map to jump straight to that entrance.

A short list of IDs or grid cells along your route is usually enough: drop, hit the first entrance, then follow the next pin without backtracking the whole region. When the prospect moves map, switch regions here rather than starting over.

Caves, Ore & Mining Locations

Cave locations help when you are planning resource and mining routes, not only when you need shelter. Many cave markers show ore or deep ore counts, so you can compare a nearby entrance against a pure deep-ore stop before you leave the dropship.

Use the cave map together with Deep Ore to skim mining spots around your path. This page stays focused on Icarus caves — for deep ore across every region, open the deep mining map instead. When the run is ore-first, compare with Icarus Exotic Locations so one trip covers shelter, drilling and extractor value.

Icarus Cave Locations FAQ

Where can I find caves in Icarus?+

Caves appear on all four Icarus maps: Olympus, Prometheus, Styx and Elysium. Open the cave map above, pick a region, and leave Caves turned on to show entrances. Search an in-game cave ID such as R-17 or a grid cell like J7 to jump straight to a pin. Open a marker for size, ore counts and other details, or click any row in the list under the map — numbered IDs when the atlas has them, otherwise the grid cell.

Is there an Icarus cave locations map?+

Yes. This page is the Icarus cave map for every region in one place. Switch Olympus, Prometheus, Styx or Elysium above, keep Caves on, filter by size, water or deep ore beside the map, and turn on Show Grid for the A–P / 1–16 layout when you need coordinates. Each region also has its own full map page if you want caves beside deep ore, exotics and the rest of that drop — start with the Olympus map when that is where you are landing.

Where are caves on Olympus?+

Switch the cave map to Olympus and leave Caves on to show Olympus cave entrances across Forest, Desert and Arctic ground. Open a marker for the cave ID, grid cell, size and ore details, or click a row in the list under the map. Olympus is where many players first hunt Icarus cave locations. For an Olympus-only cave list with size, water and deep ore filters beside other location types, use the Icarus Olympus Map.

Where are caves on Prometheus?+

Switch the cave map to Prometheus to show Prometheus cave locations from the New Frontiers region. Markers use IDs such as B-32 when available; open one for grid cell, size and resource detail, or pick a row from the list under the map. On Prometheus it often helps to show Deep Ore or Exotics next to caves when you are chaining underground stops. The Icarus Prometheus Map keeps a Prometheus-only cave list if you are staying on that region for the whole prospect.

Do caves contain ore in Icarus?+

Many caves are useful mining and resource stops, not only landmarks. Cave markers often show ore counts, deep ore counts and details such as water, so you can compare a nearby entrance with a pure vein stop before you drop. Use Caves together with Deep Ore Veins on this map to skim a route, or open the Icarus Deep Mining Ore Deposit Map when you want deep ore across every region without staying on the cave page. Small exotic ore nodes can also turn up inside caves — for drillable deposits and extractor runs, see Icarus Exotic Locations.

Where are caves on Styx and Elysium?+

Switch the cave map to Styx or Elysium and leave Caves on to show entrances across that region, then open a marker for cave ID, grid cell, size and ore details. For a Styx-only cave list with missions and regions beside caves, use the Icarus Styx Map; for Elysium caves with missions, use the Icarus Elysium Map.
