Zone Guide

The Barrens is the second zone that non-undead Horde characters usually encounter. Orcs and Trolls will move here from Durotor to the East and Tauren from Mulgore to the West.

For all races, the first task is to travel to the Crossroads to obtain the flightpath. From Durotar, the road from Razor Hill continues westward into The Barrens, intersecting with the Gold Road. From this intersection the South Gold Road leads to the Crossroads. From Mulgore the road leads through Camp Taurajo and intersects with the Gold Road. From this intersection the North Gold Road leads to the Crossroads.

The Crossroads is a convenient bind point for many levels, providing a convenient flight origin for many destinations beyond the Barrens itself. With 10 flight paths, you can get almost everywhere on the continent.
