Note: Dun Morogh is toughest for Horde players as it is a starting zone. You’ll need to come in from the Wetlands, and Arathi Basin before that, and then do a slow, careful loop around the zone. Points to be especially careful of include Gol’Bolar Quarry, Kharanos, the Gates of Ironforge, Brewnall Village, and Anvilmar. Be sure to go inside the cave at Frostmane Hold and the one at Tundrid Hills.

Guide To Exploring Dun Morogh

As a starting zone, Dun Morogh is one of the more sprawling and location filled zones in the game, making it hard to get every part of it, especially if you are anything but a Gnome or Dwarf who started here. So to explore Dun Morogh effectively, you’ll need a good walkthrough of locations.

For Horde players, start at the North Gate Outpost (83,41), after coming through from the Wetlands and Arathi Highlands. Alliance players can start at the Gates of Ironforge (52,35). From the North Gate Outpost, travel south to the South Gate Outpost (85,51), then to Helm’s Bed Lake (76,54) and Gol’Bolar Quarry (68,56).

Continue north to Amberstill Ranch (63,50), then to Misty Pine Refuge (58,44) and then south to The Tundrid Hills (56,57). From this point, go north to Kharanos (46,52) and Shimmer Ridge (40,38). Travel west to the Iceflow Lake (34,42) and then on to Gnomeregan (24,40), Brewnall Village (30,45) and Frostmane Hold (25,50). Go to Chill Breeze Valley (36,52) next, and then the Grizzled Den (42,58). Finally, go to Coldridge Pass (34,69) and Anvilmar (28,67) to wrap things up.

This route will take you through a large number of spots as you explore Dun Morogh. If you are an Alliance character with a ground mount, expect it take 20-30 minutes. If you are a Horde player, you may need as much as an hour to skulk your way around the Alliance camps and NPCs that litter this zone. And the Gates of Ironforge (52,35) will be a bit of a tough one. Your best bet would be to run in fast as you can to trigger the credit!
