In chapter 15 of Gylfaginning, a book of the Prose Edda, the throned figure of Just-As-High tells Gangleri ( described as King Gylfi in disguise ) about Yggdrasil and its roots.

Just-As-High describes three roots that support Yggdrasil that stretch a great distance.

Gangleri then is taken to the king of the palace and comes upon three men ; High, Just-As-High, and Third.

Each question made to High, Just-As-High, and Third is about an aspect of the Norse mythology or its gods, and also about the creation and destruction of the world ( Ragnarök ).

Just-As-High provides details regarding Mímisbrunnr and then describes that the third root of the well " extends to heaven " and that beneath the root is the " very holy " well Urðarbrunnr.

Just-As-High details that, every day, the gods ride over the bridge Bifröst to hold court at the well.

Gangleri sees three thrones, and three figures sitting upon them: High sitting on the lowest throne, Just-As-High sitting on the next highest throne, and Third sitting on the highest.

Yggdrasil is first mentioned in the poem in stanza 29, where Odin says that, because the " bridge of the Æsir burns " and the " sacred waters boil ," Thor must wade through the rivers Körmt and Örmt and two rivers named Kerlaugar to go " sit as judge at the ash of Yggdrasill.

In stanza 31, Odin says that the ash Yggdrasil has three roots that grow in three directions.

In stanza 34, Odin says that more serpents lie beneath Yggdrasil " than any fool can imagine " and lists them as Góinn and Móinn ( possibly meaning Old Norse " land animal "), which he describes as sons of Grafvitnir ( Old Norse, possibly " ditch wolf "), Grábakr ( Old Norse " Greyback "), Grafvölluðr ( Old Norse, possibly " the one digging under the plain " or possibly amended as " the one ruling in the ditch "), Ófnir ( Old Norse " the winding one, the twisting one "), and Sváfnir ( Old Norse, possibly " the one who puts to sleep
