The Trident is a river in the aptly named Riverlands. It splits into three forks; the Red, the Green and the Blue.

Red Fork

The Red Fork of the Trident is wide and slow, a meandering river of loops and bends dotted with tiny wooded islets and frequently choked by sandbars and snags.[1] The lands of House Bracken lie along the Red Fork. There is a crossing, the Mummer's Ford, where the Battle at the Mummer's Ford took place.

Green Fork

North of the Crossroads Inn the Kingsroad travels along the Green Fork of the Trident, through fertile valleys and green woodlands, past thriving towns and the castles of the Riverlords.[2] North of the Ruby Ford, where Robert Baratheon won his crown at the Battle of the Trident, there is no crossing until the Twins, the seat of House Frey.[3]

Blue Fork
