Liberate the Abandoned Site
When you arrive at the base of Mount Gorgon in northern Toussaint, you will discover Fox Hollow overrun by Loth's Hanse bandits as an Abandoned Site. Engage and eliminate all the occupying outlaws to liberate the settlement and bring back the local populace. Doing so permanently unlocks the Fox Hollow Signpost, which serves as your fast-travel marker.

Tip: Challenge the Innkeep to a match of Gwent to advance your regional deck collection.

Explore the North and Northeast Outskirts
Travel just outside the village to the north and northeast to inspect the Crevan Carn Dig Site, an elven burial ground tied to the treasure hunt "The Curse of Carnarvon" crawling with barghests and archespores near Alistair Carnarvon's remains. Nearby to the northeast during the quest "Knight for Hire", rescue the Knight Errant to claim a chest containing the Diagram: Toussaint knight's trousers.

Afterward, venture along the cliffs to the west to reach Lynx Crag and the Witch's Hut, an area tied to the woodcutter Jacob and the local witch from the quest "A Knight's Tales".
