Have no clue. No wayshrines.

Even worse it doesn't really even show up on map. Use current location, zoom out, and gives zero information to use.

Extremely frustrating.

Elden Root is the big tree in the middle of the map of Grahtwood. It does indeed show up on the map and it does have a wayshrine.

Elden root is not a place, but a town. It is located in grathwood, but if you have never been there it is a lil bit challenging to get there. there are however four pretty good and easy ways (providing you are in the Aldmeri dominion, otherwise, it is very hard to get there early on).

1: check you guild. If anyone is in grathwood, ask him/her if he is (near) elden root. You can rightclick any person in your guild and choose travel too (which places you at the nearest wayshrine). Even if the person doesn't reply it is worth it cause many wayshrines are close to elden root as it is the center of the map.

2: ask in /zone if anyone is going there soon and ask to party up so you can do the same as above but in the party window.

3: you will reach it when you quest at level 20 max so it is never long anyways.

4: from vulkhel guard (the starting location) it is possible to walk there.. first leave town north and follow the road to the north west till Tanzelwill wayshrine. From there follow the route in a north direction. You will pass the island Mathijssen to the right (keep going north) and when passed it follow the road to the east to the town Skywatch. When in town locate the docks in the south and talk to the npc that allows you to travel to Grathwood (haven). The town haven is in combat, so fight your way through (or if they are too high level for you, use crouching to get past unseen). You want to exit Haven to the northwest (not strait north). Don't worry, hard part is over. follow this road north till the biggest tree. That is Elden root.

If you happen to be in PC EU AD, gimme a howler ingame and you can travel to me. @mercuryranique

Sorry but I am really list. Do appreciate the help here.

I am level 14 Aldmeri Faction. Only place I know is, Auridon, Khenarthi's Roost, Cyrodiil.

Is it any of those places?

No, it's in the zone that you go to after you've completed Auridon. Have you completed the main alliance questline in Auridon and received the quest to go to Elden Root? If so, the quest marker for that should show you who you're supposed to go talk to in order to get to Grahtwood (the next zone) on the mainland, where you can make your way to Elden Root (the capital city of the Aldmeri Dominion).

THANK YOU!!!

I'm sorry but this is really just poor direction from the developer. Giving a quest and no clear direction to go.

When I zoomed out on map it showed me Cryodiil. Once again I honestly have to state how such poor design that is for a player to follow.

Basically it's like saying you have a quest in Japan, but when you zoom out of map it shows you South America.

Really Zenimax? Really? C'mon, man.

You do have a questmarker. If you are in auridon, the quest first leads you to skywatch and you board a ship in vulkhel guard (while you can go directly to grathwood from Skywatch too, the questline takes this detour to tell more of the story).

Once in eldenroot, the questmarker is clearly pointing to the big tree. the only exception is haven. if you are inside, the marker is pointing you the wrong way, but as soon as you exit it will return to the right direction.

The problem is that no locations are labels on the map. At least on console.

Would it have been too much to ask to add zone/city names to each area of the map when your cursor is over it?

Zenimax took just too many shortcuts. They left out too many Quality of life systems.
