Not sure, but this is from Ehran's speed to the YET:

"Traditionally, the Threshold Level has been set as the date of the
awakening of the first Great Dragon on the upswing and the hibernation of
the last Great Dragon on the down swing. The average time between
Threshold Levels is approximately 5,200 years."

From that, it looks like dragons go into hibernation somewhere, though
where exactly isn't mentioned.
