Ruby & Sapphire Fiery Path

A short volcanic tunnel links the two halves of Route 112 beneath Mt. Chimney. Strength boulders block off a few side pockets, so plan on a second trip to clear them all.

Fiery Path is in Hoenn. In the story you arrive from Route 112 to the south and it comes before Route 113.

FIERY PATH MAP

The Fiery Path tunnels straight under Mt. Chimney, a short volcanic shortcut you can walk end to end. Strength shoves the boulders aside to reach the side nooks, but the main passage runs clear without it.
