Narrow gaps, suspended platforms and directional water cues often point toward a traversal interaction. Stop long enough to identify the shape of the obstacle.

Use a scouting pass

Keep discoveries useful

When you find a hidden path, remember the condition that opened it. That condition is often the lesson, not the reward at the end.
