Jerall Mountains

The Jerall Mountains (also spelled Jeril) are a mountain range on the border between Cyrodiil and Skyrim. They meet the Velothi and Valus Mountains at the Morrowind border, and the Dragontail Mountains at the Hammerfell border. The Jeralls are rugged, steep, and inhospitable, with only a few traversable passes. Of particular note is the Pale Pass, which was the site of the abrupt end to the First Akaviri Invasion in 1E 2703. Kantus Jeril, who fought at Pale Pass, is the namesake of the mountain range.

Cyrodiil

The largest town in the Cyrodilic part of the Jerall Mountains is Bruma, which is connected to the rest of Cyrodiil via the Silver Road and Orange Road. The forests of the High Jeralls provide wood for the region. Dive Rock and Gnoll Mountain are among the few named peaks in the region. Other settlements include Applewatch, Cloud Ruler Temple, Frostcrag Spire, the Shurgak Estate, and the Temple of the Ancestor Moth. Shrines to Azura, Hermaeus Mora and Namira are located high up in the mountains, away from scrutinizing eyes.

Skyrim

The mountains border the Skyrim hold of Falkreath to the north and the Rift to the northeast. Some points of interest include Neugrad, the dragon shrines of Ancients' Ascent and Lost Tongue Overlook, the Dwemer ruins of Rkund, and the large Nordic ruin of Arcwind Point. In the easternmost part, where the mountain range meets Velothi and Valus Mountains, the volcanic peak of Trolhetta can be found. Here in the mountains, the First Empire of the Nords built strongholds to defend their southern frontier.
