The Valley of Fallen Heroes is a valley located between Aldur'thar: The Desolation Gate and Corp'rethar: The Horror Gate in Icecrown.
It would appear from the Scourge ground activity that any fallen champion or hero of the Alliance or Horde are killed and resurrected as champions of the Scourge instead. They are led or controlled by high ranking necromancers and val'kyr. The fallen heroes aren't the only dangers here though, there are also countless frost wyrms, flesh giants, and risen skeletons armed to the teeth. The only way to actually get through the valley is to fly. Walking will most likely get you killed by the dozens of mobs grouped together, most of which are elite.
Depending on your faction, Thassarian or Koltira Deathweaver will send the player to clear a path for the main force that will attack Icecrown Citadel. The player has to kill scourge forces before the player is sent to the last line of defense: Corp'rethar.
