STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl has hidden or locked stashes that contain all kinds of loot, and they can be found all around the different regions of the Zone. In this guide, we will be covering the one in Hlynka, which is in the Garbage region of the map. This one is going to be relatively simple, but we will clear something up first!
Stash in Hlynka (Garbage Region)
Before we get started, it is important to note that stash names are going to be random for each player. For example, this stash in particular might be called the “Missing Person’s Stash” for you, while for somebody else, it is going to be a “Plain Looking Stash”.
The location and steps to open them, or at least this one in particular, are going to be the exact same. With that out of the way, let us go over what you need to do!
First, go to the house at the marked spot in the map image below. Make sure to clear any enemies nearby, as you will have a hard time accessing the stash if there are hostiles roaming around!
There, you will find a broken television in the living room. Approach it and grab the key to the old padlock. This might be a bit finnicky, so just walk around the TV until you get the prompt to pick up a key.
Once you have it, head back outside and then immediately make your way to the building to your left. Circle around it and you will find a locked door, which is what the key will unlock.
Before you open it, get ready for a fight, as there might be a little surprise waiting for you behind the door. After clearing the place, just go on in and start looting. Who knows what you will find? A weapon and some supplies, maybe?
That is all you need to know in order to get to this stash in Hlynka. There are many more to discover in the Zone, and if you are itching to get additional loot, check out our guide on how to find an underground stash in the Lesser Zone area, which you might have missed early on!
