Fastest ground mounts in Palworld and how to get them

The rarer the mounts, the faster they are.

Exploring Palworld on a flying mount is thrilling, but sometimes, a ground mount is the way to go. They’re handy for battling other Pals or picking up items along the way. Still, speed is key, so choosing a fast Pal from this list will ensure you don’t waste time.

Top 3 best ground mounts in Palworld listed

1) Pyrin Noct

Pyrin Noct edges out Pyrin in speed just by a bit. You’ll find them both on Mount Obsidian, way out west, but the Noct version only shows up at night. While it’s not the most uncommon mount out there, it’s still faster than many late-game mounts, like Fenglope, and it’s on par with Frostallion’s speed. As you approach endgame, definitely consider catching a Pyrin. It’s a solid choice for zipping around Palworld.

  • Pyrin/Pyrin Noct location: (-560, -245)
  • Easier to acquire than other late game mounts.

2) Rayhound

  • Rayhound’s location: (353, 348)

Late in the game, head far northeast to the Desert to catch Rayhound, another speedy mount, just a tad slower than Pyrin. If you were a fan of Direhowl’s swift pace in the early stages, Rayhound is the perfect upgrade. It not only matches that speed but also offers a similar aesthetic, making it a top choice for a mount as you progress.

3) Fenglope

  • Fenglope’s location: (-478, -741)
  • Hard to find and catch
  • Great leaping animation

Fenglope might not top the speed charts among ground mounts, but it sure gives off that vibe. With a galloping animation that makes it seem like it’s floating, it really feels like you’re riding a lightning bolt. However, it’s still not as fast as Rayhound or Pyrin. Plus, finding Fenglope’s location south of Mount Obsidian is a bit tough, and it’s tougher still to catch. Fenglope is more about the thrill of the ride than raw speed, making it a choice for those who love the sensation of swift movement, even if it’s not the fastest option available.

Fastest early-game ground mount in Palworld

  • Univolt’s location: (-478, -741)
  • Easy to find and catch.
  • Offers good traversal and overall speed.

Univolt is the best land mount to catch if you’re in the earlier stages of the game. Not only does it offer a decent amount of pure speed, but it also boasts a solid jump animation that makes traversing Palworld’s map a bit easier than, say, a Direhowl. All in all, Univolt is a great land mount and an easy way to farm Leather, Horns, and Electric Organs to boot.

Where to find other fast land mounts

  • Direhowl (-67, -425)
  • Eikthyrdeer (181, -389)
  • Reindrix (-138, -133)
  • Melpaca (144, -466)

Now that you know the fastest ground mounts in Palworld, it’s time to get out there and find a Pyrin Noct! If you’d rather fly fast, check the fastest flying mounts in Palworld.
