Bonus Boards in Forza Horizon 6 are one of the fastest ways to earn XP and help push your Wristband progression at the same time.
There are 200 Bonus Boards in FH6, and finding every one of them requires time. So the smart thing to do is to sort the order so you can clear clusters quickly in a single route. XP Bonus Boards are easy collectibles tied to the Horizon Festival side of the Collection Journal, and here are all the locations of them.

The easiest way to clear these Boards is to sweep one region at a time instead of chasing scattered icons all over the map. That keeps your route clean and makes it easier to remember which rooftop, cliff edge, or hidden lane you already checked.
Use the map filters to hide clutter and focus on collectibles so discovered boards stand out more clearly. If a board looks unreachable, look for a nearby jump, ramp, slope, or side road that lets you line up a clean hit.
Forza Horizon 6 XP Bonus Boards rewards
XP Bonus Boards in FH6 can reward you with:
- 1,000 XP
- 3,000 XP
- 5,000 XP
Boards with 1,000 XP are the easiest to claim as they are easily visible on the road. 3,000 XP Boards are mostly hidden behind buildings or barns. 5,000 XP Boards are the most difficult to get because they are often found on the rooftops of buildings or in more difficult locations. That means you need to maneuver well with the vehicle, perform high jumps, and land properly, and then you can claim the prize.
But in my opinion, it’s absolutely worth the effort. XP boards are valuable because they reward exploration without asking for a perfect race, a tuned car, or a win streak. That makes them one of the most consistent early-game progress tools, especially if you are still learning the map.
They also pair well with normal play because you can collect them while driving between races, houses, and event markers. I would suggest you focus first on boards that sit close to roads, bridges, and open travel lanes, because those are the fastest to clear. Save the awkward rooftop and island boards for later, when you are already familiar with the map’s shortcuts and elevation changes.
