Okay do I have a terrible sense of direction or does everyone get so confused when trying to go to the Mage’s Tower in the Swamp?

I swear I cannot seem to memorize the route to get into the Mage’s Tower coming from the village way. I hit a wall of vegetation every single time and wander my way following it only to get more lost on the way getting pissed off. This is my second play through and I have almost 100 hours in this game yet still struggle with this lmao.

Someone tell me I’m not the only one!
