How to get to the Riverglades

  • On foot from Redridge. Blackrock Pass leads from Redridge Mountains into the zone.
  • By ship from Tanaris. The boat links Steamwheedle Port in Tanaris with Powderfuse Port on the Riverglades coast.
  • By air, Alliance. Farholde Keep, the base of the Brotherhood of the Horse, has the Alliance flight path.

Horde players reach it the same way by road or by ship. The other ship routes added for WoW Forever are in our new zones guide.

Alliance and Horde stories in the Riverglades

Alliance quests follow the Brotherhood of the Horse, who are still fighting to take back their lands around Farholde Keep. On the Horde side, an ogre clan that broke away from the Twilight's Hammer has joined the Horde, and its story carries the Horde questline.

Because the zone is contested, Alliance and Horde characters quest there side by side.
