Iron Pickaxe

• 

The Iron Pickaxe is the strongest Pickaxe in Valheim and a necessary upgrade before heading into the Mountains. It is required to mine Silver and Obsidian found in the mountains.

You should make yourself an iron pickaxe after you have finished crafting your Iron Armor and Weapons because while it’s a significant pickaxe upgrade, it’s not required for anything in the Sunken Crypts or the Swamp itself.
