Route 48 (Japanese: ４８ばんどうろ Route 48) is a route in western Johto, connecting Route 47 and Johto's Safari Zone. The route only appears in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver.

Route description

Route 48 begins on the east side of the river that runs over the west waterfall on Route 47. Almost immediately, it crosses over the river by way of a bridge, toward long grass. Various Pokémon can be found in the grass. North of the grass, another bridge crosses the river again, and the route ends at the Safari Zone Gate.
