Crimson Desert: Guard Station Locations & Interactive Tracking Guide

There are 8 Guard Stations in Crimson Desert — law enforcement processing points found in every major settlement across Pywel.

They serve two functions: the drop-off point for captured Bounty Notice targets, and the jail location for players who are arrested while Wanted.

Every station was included on our region maps as part of the Crimson Desert 100% completion hub.

Turning in Bounty Targets

Guard Stations are the final step in the Bounty Notice capture loop. After tackling a target, punching three times to extract a confession, and tying them up, ride to the nearest Guard Station and turn them in to claim the full silver reward.

Delivering a target alive gives the full payout — half if they died during capture.

Each capture also earns Contribution EXP toward your House Celeste faction rank. See the Bounty Notice guide for all 23 target locations.

Jail

If guards arrest Kliff during an active Wanted status, he wakes up in the jail attached to the nearest Guard Station. Serving the sentence clears the regional bounty without paying a Writ of Absolution.

If you don't want to pay silver for clearance and your bounty is modest, surrendering at a Guard Station is sometimes the more economical option.

For voluntary bounty clearing, use a Confessional — Guard Stations don't accept Writ payments.

Being Wanted near a Guard Station

Guards attack on sight throughout Pywel if your Wanted status is active — this applies everywhere, not just near Guard Stations.

Clear your bounty at a Confessional before visiting if you need to use the station for bounty turn-ins.

All Eight Locations

Hernand has the highest concentration with three stations: the Hernand Constabulary in Hernand City (the primary Bounty Notice drop-off for most of Chapters 2 and 3), a second unnamed station in Hernand, and the Calphade Castle Constabulary in the Calphade area.

The Crimson Desert region has two: one in Varnia and one in Tommaso.

Demeniss has one by Demeniss Castle, Delesyia has one on the west side of town, and Pailune has one in the northeastern corner of Pailune City.

All 8 Guard Station locations are marked on the Hernand interactive map (3 stations), Pailune world map, Demeniss region guide, Delesyia interactive map, and Crimson Desert region map (2 stations).
