{{Badges|art}}
The '''Path of Aganhei''' is the primary route bridging [[Tian Xia]] and [[Avistan]] across the [[Crown of the World]]. The path was first charted by the [[Tian (human ethnicity)#Tian-Min|Tian-Min]] explorer [[Amatatsu Aganhei]] around [[1300 AR]].<ref>{{cite book/Lands of the Linnorm Kings|4}}</ref> Though his maps were thought destroyed, they resurfaced around [[4300 AR]], leading to dramatically increased trade between the two continents.<ref>{{cite book/Lands of the Linnorm Kings|5}}</ref> Despite its many dangers, the Path is a valuable trade route,<ref name="ISWGp207">{{cite book/The Inner Sea World Guide|207}}</ref> although completing it requires the aid of skilled guides.<ref>{{cite book/Lands of the Linnorm Kings|32}}</ref>

The Path is actually two overlapping trade routes, one connecting the [[Successor States]] of [[Lung Wa]] with the [[Realm of the Mammoth Lords]] and the [[Sellen Passage]], the other carrying travelers from [[Minkai]] to the [[Lands of the Linnorm Kings]].<ref>{{cite book/The Inner Sea World Guide|252}}</ref> This latter road begins in [[Hongal]] in Tian Xia,<ref name="ISWGp207" /> crossing the [[Wall of Heaven]] through the [[Altan Zuud]], climbs the [[High Ice]] at [[Ovorikheer Pass]], descends back to the [[Outer Rim]] at [[Koumssa Gap]], and enjoys relative safety as it passes through [[Hasanaliat]] and [[Urjuk]] before climbing the [[Rimethirst Mountains]].<ref>{{cite book/The Hungry Storm|18}}</ref> From there it branches, crossing the [[Stormspear Hills]] and ending at [[Kalsgard]] in the west<ref>{{cite book/The Inner Sea World Guide|104}}</ref> and running through miles of tundra toward [[Icestair]] in the east.<ref>{{cite book/The Inner Sea World Guide|108}}</ref>
