How to unlock the Go Gentle Into That Good Light achievement in Alan Wake - Definitive Guide
The approach to the lighthouse is the entire section after you have spoken with Zane for the last time, and used the floating ‘ignite’ word to turn the lighthouse lights on, which will then turn at a slow pace and one hit kill any Taken in their path. This segment is much briefer than the ‘Gunless Wonder’ achievement from the main game, and is made easier with the presence of the rotating lights. You will constantly come across floating ‘clear’ words which break the rocks on the path ahead of you, allowing more light exposure.
The Taken spawns are numerous and random here. Use flares when necessary (or flashbangs if you have any left from the earlier bridge segment), especially in dire situations. There are several checkpoints along the way, so if you die you will only be taken back to a slightly earlier position. The achievement will unlock when you reach the lighthouse and Alan begins talking.

This is part of The Writer DLC.
After speaking with Zane, you will find the word "Ignite". Head up a hill with words that say "Clear". Use these words as fast as you can to clear away the rocks. When you eventually get to a safe haven, the achievement will unlock. If you fire a shot by accident, reload your checkpoint.

Once you find the word "Ignite" after Zane talks to you, you'll head up a hill with words that say "Clear" on large rocks. You will want to use these as fast as you can, as it clears away the rocks blocking the lighthouse's light. This light will rotate in circles and kill the enemies. Dodge or run around and let the light kill the enemies, making sure you only use flares if anything. It is a pretty good distance, but eventually you will find a Safe Haven which is the end point. If you accidently fire a shot, reload your checkpoint.
