Ancient's Ascent

One must navigate through Bonechill Passage to reach this remote site, which lies high among Falkreath’s southern peaks. Dispatch gossamer Ice Wraiths as you ascend the snow-covered steps here, which lead up to an ancient Word Wall. After you complete Dragon Rising, a dragon will make its home here. Before that point, this area will be inhabited by 2 ice wolves.

Alternatively, it's possible to reach the peak from the opposite direction but involves a lot of jumping and climbing. Eventually you will reach the peak directly behind the dragon. To use this route, from the door to Bloodlet Throne head directly towards the marker for Ancient's Ascent, you will come to a rock wall, go to the left edge and with only a couple jumps you will slip over the rock face. If stealthy, it makes for a perfect sneak attack before the dragon awakens.

There is a note in a burned down hut which activates a quest to kill the dragon.

Alternatively, a bounty for the dragon can be received from Falkreath.

Also one of the blades dragon slaying quests sends you there, After giving the followers to delphine
