Robber's Gorge is a camp located in western Hjaalmarch Hold. It is a well-fortified bandit encampment straddling the main roadway and commanding a strategic location along the main route from Whiterun to Solitude, situated south-west of Morthal and just west of Kilkreath Ruins.
Description
The fort is controlled by a bandit chief who commands six bandits. The fort is well fortified with one main access point, several watch towers and two rock-fall traps which are controlled by the lever at the watchtowers.
There is also an underwater access point, and a few ways to jump over the rocks lining one side of it. The bandit chief's house at the top of the fort has various chests and desks which contain gold and other items.
Robber's Cove
In the back of the house there is a trapdoor to Robber's Cove with chests and a water access point to the fort. The bandit chief's journal in the cave describes the location of an additional chest on an island to the south of the fort.

Trivia
- When checked via "detect life," all NPCs in the makeshift fort appear to be non-hostile.
- When approached on foot (from direction south) the highwayman on the guard tower will initiate conversation and will allow passage when the player pays 100 gold.
- When approached on horseback, all bandits will immediately react hostile and attack the player and all possible followers. Even if the player approaches on foot, pays the toll and then tries to pass on their horse, the bandits will attack.confirmation needed
