Longwythe Peak is a crag in central Leide in Final Fantasy XV. Its origins and composition are a mystery to scientists, and it is a popular spot for tourists to take photos.
Ignis also learns a recipe called Longwythe's Peak, named after the landmark.
Almanac[]
By a shack in a junction of the road east from the Longwythe Rest Area.
- Colossal crag towering over the Weaverwilds in central Leide. Popular among tourists and geologists alike as a spot for souvenir shots and scientific studies respectively.
- For roughly two millennia, the mystery of the mountain's origins has perplexed people across Eos. Geologists have uncovered so signs of seismic activity among the plates beneath the peak, and the oil fields underground rule out any volcanic hypothesis. Moreover, the rock that composes the crag has proven resistant to all forms of erosion. Thus, the question remains: just how did Longwythe come to be?
- The broken buildings in the surrounding area are remnants of the pre-kingdom days, echoes of an era long gone. Some scholars speculate that whatever natural disaster destroyed these homes might have also been responsible for creating the now-famous crag.

The player must take the Let Sleeping Mountains Lie quest from Cindy at the Hammerhead station. The quest concludes with the party discovering that the mountain at Longwythe Peak is actually the adamantoise, which they then flee from.
