How to Get Ainsel River Map
View full image

Entering Lake of Rot rquires that you progress through Ranni the Witch's questline. After giving her the Fingerslaying Blade, the barrier blocking off the entrance to Renna's Rise will disappear. The waygate at the top of Renna's Rise will teleport you to a region of Ainsel River that leads to Lake of Rot.

From here, you must head all the way to the west of Nokstella, Eternal City, where there will be a lift that takes you down.

Follow the path a little bit more going south, and you will finally reach the Lake of Rot. The map fragment will be on the shore, close to the first Site of Grace you see.
