Are you referring to the looping forest area? If you stumble around enough in that area you should receive hints, did you get to that point?
Hmmm... interesting. That's not really what the hints say so clearly there's a conveyance failure there, but you're not the only one that's been struggling!
I just pushed an update with a revised hint system for that area that gives more, smaller hints more often and lets you repeat them at any time in the area from the pause menu.
Let me know if it helps!
