How to get to the Wishing Well in God of War Ragnarok

The Wishing Well becomes available to you when you reach The Crater. The only way to access this location is to continue the main story and complete the section where Kratos and Freya mount a rescue for Freyr, who the Asgardians have taken. After you complete these and bring him back to camp, Helka will run away from camp, trying to lead you somewhere. This will be the Scent of Survival quest, and completing it unlocks this region.

After you unlock it, you have to make your way to the southern region by going through the ruins, which bring you to The Jungle. Before you do anything else, we recommend making your way through this area to the dam and unlocking it, bringing water back to the valley. Now, return to the entrance where you arrived, and use the hanging latch to make it to the left. On this side is a gate you can unlock using a nearby chain. Go through the now-open gate, and follow the patch until you reach the Wishing Well. It will be a large location that connects the Jungle to The Plains.

The Wishing Well is how you purify the many crystals found in The Plains. You can attack and break these glowing orange crystals, with Mimir commenting on how they could be useful. You then must destroy one of the crystals surrounding the Wishing Well before tossing them into the water. You can now receive multiple resources for doing this, such as Gleaming Crystals.
