Route Description

The official route is simply a descent from the giant mythical tree atop the Temple KOM, then a short trip across to the start of the Temple KOM to climb it again.
But we start with a lead-in, since we spawn on the island just before the Fishing Village. Ride over the bridge, through the Village, then turn left onto the dirt and begin your climb. The lead-in ends atop the Temple KOM, so it’s a substantial startup effort!
