How To Get To The Storm Peaks

The Storm Peaks is a mountainous region plagued by frigid and violent winds. It is in the northeastern part of Northrend and shares a border with Icecrown, Crystalsong, and Zul’Drak.

Points of Interest

Ulduar

There have been whispers of a great evil at work behind the fall of the titan-forged city of Ulduar. Heroes seeking the truth can find it in the corridors of this ancient compound. Few have braved the perils of Ulduar and returned to tell of their discoveries.

Halls of Stone: This is the first instance in Ulduar and is protected by storm giants and crystal golems. Only the bravest adventurers can uncover more about the titans and their actions in Ulduar.

Halls of Lightning: Ulduar’s second instance can be found in the eastern part of the titan city. It is here that Loken, closely guarded by elementals and surrounded by his powerful servants, commands his forces.

Preparing for the Journey

Keeping yourself supplied is challenging, and available services are limited within The Storm Peaks and Icecrown. Flight paths are readily available to other parts of Northrend and other hubs. Most of what you’ll need to survive can be procured without traveling to the capital cities unless you need the Bank or Auction House. Don’t forget to set your Hearthstone before you go.
