Destiny Road is an album by the British blues band the Peter Green Splinter Group, led by Peter Green. Released in 1999, this was their fourth album. Green was the founder of Fleetwood Mac and a member of that group from 1967–70, before a sporadic solo career during the late 1970s and early 1980s.

The album included a reworking of "Tribal Dance", which first featured on Green's 1979 solo album In the Skies, and also a new version of the Fleetwood Mac hit "Man of the World".
