Hunterhorn Mountains

The Hunterhorn Mountains stretch across western Thedas. They form the largest mountain range and hold some of the continent's tallest peaks, including its highest; Mt. Ambrosia.

Geography

In the southern reaches of this massive mountain range, within Orlais, lie the Gamordan Peaks, which surround the Western Approach from one side. This desert is marked by a great chasm called the Abyssal Reach, and on its edge stands the Adamant Fortress, which belongs to the Grey Wardens. This was also the site of a major battle during the Second Blight.
The Hunterhorn Mountains then expand north with The Tirashan to the east. Then the mountain range splits off into several ranges which enter the Anderfels. Beneath one of them, to the east, is located the great thaig of Kal-Sharok, once capital of the dwarven empire.
The griffons were native to the northern reaches of the Hunterhorn Mountains before their extinction during the EXalted Age. The northeast point of the mountain range ends in the city of Laysh, which lies next to the Volca Sea.
