The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Game Add-Ons (DLC) Hints
How can I get to the third wayshrine?
1 of 7: Before you start off for the next wayshrine, you might want to go down to the south end of the river and fall down the waterfall that leads to the Darkfall Grotto area. It's an optional area where a falmer camp has been attacked by feral falmer. When you're ready to leave, let the swift-flowing water return you to Darkfall Passage, where you can use its wayshrine's teleporter to return to the vale.
2 of 7: Go down to the north end of the river, then look near one of the waterfalls to find a huge and powerful frost giant. Like all giants, he won't be hostile to you unless you get too close or attack him.
3 of 7: Optionally kill him for his unique Amethyst Paragon item, then look across the river from where he was to find the start of a steep path with some steps along it.
4 of 7: Go up to the top of the path and turn left if you want to continue to the next wayshrine, or turn right if you want to get another paragon item and more loot.
5 of 7: Move down the path to the stream, then cross it and go over the small hill to find a path that leads up to the next wayshrine.
6 of 7: Before you go over there, you may want to head a short way SE to find a Word Wall with a word for the Drain Vitality shout. Be warned that when you approach the word wall, two named dragons will burst up out of the ice and attack you. (In a recent playthru, this even happened with a level 1 character.)
7 of 7: Once you reach the wayshrine, talk to the prelate to get him to raise it up so you can get some water from its basin.
