Road to Forever is the second solo studio album by Don Felder, the first since 1983. It was released on October 8, 2012.

Contributors to the album include Randy Jackson, Crosby, Stills and Nash, Steve Lukather, David Paich and Steve Porcaro of Toto, and Tommy Shaw of Styx. It was produced by Felder along with Robin DiMaggio.

The album was conceived and written out of the pain Felder felt following the breakup of his marriage in 2000, and his dismissal from the Eagles soon after.

On December 17, 2013, the album was reissued as "Road to Forever - Extended Edition" on digital platforms. It compiled all four bonus tracks from previous editions of the album and places them before album track "Give My Life". The single "You Don't Have Me" made it to #1 and stayed in the top ten for 11 weeks on the Classic Rock Radio charts and the previous single "Wash Away" reached #4.
