'''The Risen Road''' is a long stretch of road that connects [[Elturel]] and [[Baldur's Gate]]. It runs parallel to the [[River Chionthar]], and serves as an alternate route of trade. A section of the Risen Road serves as a [[location]] in the [[Wilderness]] in [[Act One]] of [[Baldur's Gate 3]], covering an area including a Tollhouse, a cave entrance, and the road south of the inn [[Waukeen's Rest]].

{{Q|... those who seek to journey to the coast from the interior regions lying to the east will typically seek out the Risen Road. Running parallel to the River Chionthar, the Risen Road provides an overland route all the way from Elturel to Baldur's Gate, and has proven tempting to travellers seeking an alternate to the river barges that sail the Chionthar.|[[Traveller's Guide to the Sword Coast Vol. IV: The Risen Road]]|image=Book Generic A Unfaded.png}}

The Toll House's basement can be accessed by using a trap door located in the same room as [[Anders]], on the ground level.
The Toll House's basement can be accessed by using a trap door located in the same room as [[Anders]], on the ground level.
There is a locked door and a dead toll collector in the basement. The locked door can be opened by either destroying it, or by using the {{SmRarityItem|Toll Collector's Key}}, found to the side of the road going south from the Toll House {{Coords|104|525}}. It cannot be lockpicked.

Past the door are several rooms with trap vents that can release poison clouds if the pressure plate in the hidden treasury room is stepped on. In the end room are two stone thrones. Sit on or place items on both at the same time to reveal a hidden treasury that contains a {{SmRarityItem|Greataxe +1}} and {{SmRarityItem|Gloves of Heroism}} as well as several mundane weapons. This room is also trapped, but if the pressure plate is disarmed none of the other traps will fire.
