Overview

Beregost lies on the Coast Way between Baldur's Gate and Amn, with the Cloakwood about nine miles to the north. It grew around a road busy with caravans and travellers.

Its grandest building is the Song of the Morning, a temple of Lathander, the god of dawn; on a hill nearby stand the ruins of the old Ulcaster School of Wizardry. Beregost appears in the Baldur's Gate video games.
