The Frostback Basin is a region in the far southwestern border of Ferelden which lies beneath the Frostback Mountains.
Background
Throughout history, few have dared explore the Frostback Basin. Ancient Tevinter ruins lie overgrown by thick forest, their purpose here forgotten. Rare expeditions in ages past returned with little information - or did not return at all. The exception is the Avvar, who have long travelled the basin, and, in more recent generations, established a hold along its steep mountain cliffs. -Excerpt from the quest journal
