Gnome gliders are a method of transportation available after completing The Grand Tree quest. They can fly to many locations and can be used in combination with teleport spells, spirit trees, and the fairy ring network to quickly travel across Gielinor.

The fastest way to access the glider network is by either taking the royal seed pod and climbing up to the top floor (requiring Monkey Madness II), or using a ring of dueling to teleport to Emir's Arena and running south-west, both of which take approximately 15 seconds.

Efficient travel

Like various other teleportation methods, the gnome gliders can be used for efficient travel, especially when doing tasks such as farming runs. The following table compares methods of reaching a glider:

Teleport to Ape Atoll Dungeon, run north-west Chathead image of Captain ShoracksCaptain Shoracks 46s Arceuus Ape Atoll Teleport

1Teleporting to the fairy ring in a player-owned house may be faster, based on the location of the superior garden and how fast the house loads.

*This route may take a second or two longer if gates or doors need to be opened or if the captain has wandered.

**A lunar staff can also be used, or no staff if the Lumbridge & Draynor elite diary is completed.
