The route at a glance

How to read the route. Zones are sorted by the level of their quests. The range covers most quests of the zone; the quest givers listed offer the most. When two zones overlap, stay in the first until its quests become easy, then move on.

Check in game. The route relies on original Azeroth quests still found in Forever's files. New zones (Zephras Isle, Mount Hyjal…) and new dungeons are not included yet.
