Where the path splits, go down to where the meat grinders are. Flip the switch to turn off the meat grinders and a cow will run offscreen to the right. Go right and interact with the cowbell on the ground.

Partway through the jungle, you will see an explorer. Follow the explorer through the subsequent maze. When you reach the end, a short scene will play; to avoid the statues take the small path on the left, then interact with the amulet on the altar. (You will need to use it shortly.)
