The High Road

''Great! The CEO has been defeated! Now you must keep going right, but carefully; this level is Road to Nowhere; hard, very hard version!'' - Level description

The High Road is the twenty-third level (including boss fights), is the second and last bridge type of level and is the sixth level of the third island in the original Crash Bandicoot. This level is like Road to Nowhere, but with more complex jumps. It has slippery platforms and platforms that break. There are many turtles which can be knocked over so Crash can bounce further and is essential for proceeding through the level.

Trivia

 * In the background of the level, Cortex Castle is the same size as in the level Road to Nowhere. However, since The High Road takes place on Cortex Island, Cortex Castle shouldn't be visable at all.
 * In levels prior to The High Road, there are never two consecutive levels without a Tawna bonus round. They are located either in every other level, or occasionally in consecutive levels. However, starting with The High Road, Tawna bonus rounds are only located in every third level, which means there are fewer places to save the game's progress as the player reaches the later stages of the game.
 * In the prototype, The High Road comes after Road to Nowhere on the third island.
