- Not to be confused with Golden Road.
The Gold Road.
The Gold Road runs north-south from Mor'shan Rampart to the Great Divide. Prior to the Cataclysm the road continued south, to a bridge connecting the northern and southern half of the Barrens. South of the bridge, the road was called the Southern Gold Road.
World of Warcraft[]
The believed ancient highway.
The following details traveling the Gold Road prior to the Cataclysm:
- Starting from north, you'll be at the Mor'shan Rampart and the Mor'shan Base Camp. Further south will be a road heading east towards Durotar. Then carry on going south along the road and arrive at Crossroads where you cross the East-West road (Ratchet to Honor's Stand). Carry on south and you'll pass two oasis' and Wailing Caverns. A little while later you'll come across a dried-up river which creates a "border" between North and South Barrens. Here also will be Mankrik's Wife, which is a quest target.
- After going further down the road, you will find a turn-off which leads into Mulgore and before that Camp Taurajo. Further south will be a path to Dustwallow Marsh. Keep going south and there'll be a dwarven hold named Bael Modan. After that is a pass and then the Great Lift and two other instances, Razorfen Downs and Razorfen Kraul.
In the RPG[]
It was an ancient highway that ran the breadth of Kalimdor a millennium ago.[1]
This trade route is named for the trade caravans that travel regularly along the highway from Ratchet in the south all the way to Nighthaven in the north.[2]
Notes[]
- This area was planned to be available in the Southern Barrens warfront.
