How to unlock the Elemental Enthusiast achievement in Skylanders Giants - Definitive Guide

In the first Chapter you will find 3 areas over the course of the level that require a Skylander of a certain element to unlock them. All of which Correspond to the 3 characters which come with the Portal pack.
These areas are represented on the ground with a glowing symbol of the respective element required to open it.
You can use any Skylander be it from Series 1, 2 or a Giant as long as it is the corresponding element.
The first is Grass which is found before you exit the cave area in the top left which can be opened with your new Giant (Tree Rex)
The second can be found after leaving the cave to the left and requires a Air Skylander
The third is really the only missable area and can be found just off to the bottom of the screen after breaking off the 1st chain on the Arkeyan robot you meet just to the left of the house down there and will require an Undead Skylander.
After unlocking this it will pop.

Note:
If this is your first time opening an area too you will unlock:

Thanks for the solution. I was afraid that it would involve the three from the starter pack. I've got the old game, but I don't have an air or undead type. So you won't be able to 1000 the "Portal Owner Pack" unless you have (or buy) these two other types. The first game came with magic, tech, and water.

Do you have to open them all in one go or can you go back and just do one if you missed it? As I've opened all the gates now but the achievement has not popped up!!

All in a single run. It should pop the second you open the 3rd area...

his achievement requires you to open all 3 of the elemental areas on the 1st level of the game. You will need a life, air, and undead character to obtain this achievement. Use the video as a guide to where the areas are and don't forget you can use any of your original characters from Spyro's adventure.

This achievement can be obtained during the third chapter. You can unlock all three elemental areas using the characters that came with the game. Just make sure you have an earth, air, and undead Skylander. Check out the video below for detailed locations of all three elemental areas.

But is there a chapter you can finish with JUST the giant that came with the game?

You won't get the achievement, because the achievement requires that you do it on the first level.

There are three elemental areas to find, and you will need a Life Skylander, an Air Skylander, and an Undead Skylander to unlock them all. (These are the three types included in the starter pack.)

The life elemental area is found just after the Chompy pit, before you leave the cave. The air elemental area is to the left, just after exiting the cave. The undead elemental area is accessible after you break the first chain on the robot. Circle left around the small building below you, and you'll find the area.

Here's a video by XboxAchievables:

You will need the Skylander types mentioned in the Roadmap in order to get this trophy, simply unlock all three areas and the trophy is yours. The first area is at the end of the cave to the left, it requires a LIFE Skylander. The second area is right outside of the exit of the cave all the way to the left it can be hard to spot because you have to backtrack a couple of steps in order for the camera to view it, this area requires an AIR Skylander. The final area of Chapter 1 at the base of the bamboo structure after destroying the first chain and crossing the bride, run down and towards the left around the small building and you will see it, this area requires an UNDEAD Skylander. The trophy should unlock after accessing the third area.
