When you first approach this area a cut scene will trigger where you and your party will come across a group of Githyanki. If you have the ability, it’s highly recommend that you try and acquire the Silver Sword of the Astral Plane. After this scene at the broken bridge plays out, then you can move past it. If you are still in the very early game of Baldur’s Gate 3 it would probably be best to hold off on this for now. There is a ton of content and things to do and see on this main Act 1 map.

Once you’ve traveled the Mountain Pass, you’ll be looking for the Rosymorn Monastery. You’ll find it to the northeast of where you start near the Trielta Crags waypoint. Getting inside takes a bit of exploring. Keep an eye out for roots and vines to climb and you can reach an area with a boarded up doorway. Destroy the planks to get inside.
