The Riverglades is a new level 30–45 leveling zone in the Eastern Kingdoms in World of Warcraft: Forever, and it has a neutral goblin port that both Alliance and Horde can use. Blizzard has not yet published the port's actual travel routes — no official flight-path list, boat destinations or coordinates exist as of September 13, 2026. What is confirmed: the zone arrives at launch on November 4, 2026, with 150+ quests and new reputations.

What is confirmed about the Riverglades and its port

  • Zone: the Riverglades, a brand-new leveling zone in the Eastern Kingdoms
  • Level range: roughly mid-30s to mid-40s (Blizzard lists it as 30–45)
  • Quests: 150+ new quests
  • Reputations: new factions to grind in the zone
  • Port: a neutral goblin port — usable by both factions, in the tradition of Booty Bay, Ratchet and Gadgetzan
  • Travel routes: not published. Flight-path connections, boat lines and the port's exact position are unknown until beta data or Blizzard's own previews reveal them
  • Available from: November 4, 2026, 3 p.m. Pacific, included with a normal WoW subscription

One useful thing to know before you plan a route: Forever has no flying mounts and no level scaling. That means the goblin port matters more than a modern-WoW hub would — flight points and boats are your only shortcuts, and a 30–45 zone parked between existing Eastern Kingdoms regions will change how mid-level characters move around the continent.

Will the Riverglades goblin port have a boat or a flight path?

Nobody outside Blizzard can answer that yet. Every neutral goblin port in the original game (Booty Bay, Ratchet) was both a flight-point hub and a boat terminal, so it is a reasonable guess the Riverglades port follows that pattern — but it is a guess, not a fact. The beta runs September 17 to October 21, 2026, and is capped at level 30, so the first reliable route data will likely come from datamining or Blizzard previews rather than from players walking through the zone.

If you want to be ready on day one, the practical move is simpler than a map: keep a character in the 30s so you can enter the zone the moment routes go live.

How do you get to the Riverglades in WoW: Forever?

Blizzard has confirmed only that the zone sits in the Eastern Kingdoms and is designed for characters around level 30 to 45. Which existing zones border it, and which town's flight master connects to it, has not been announced. Because there is no level scaling, expect the sensible entry point to be from a neighbouring zone in a similar level band, the way Arathi leads into the Hinterlands or Stranglethorn into Booty Bay. Treat any specific "go to X and take the boat" instruction you read before launch as unverified.

What else is new for travel in Classic Plus (Forever)?

Three things. First, no flying — ground mounts and flight paths only, with the riding skill updated (details unpublished). Second, a new Camping system lets players build campsites in the open world that others can join, with tradeskill buffs, which is a nice mid-route rest stop in a zone this size. Third, Mount Hyjal is a new endgame zone hosting the Hyjal Summit raid and one of three Barrow Deeps entrances, and Zephras Isle is a floating 1–12 start island for the new Skyborne race. How each of these connects to the mainland route network is still unknown.

Is it worth leveling through the Riverglades instead of the old 30–45 zones?

Almost certainly yes for the first playthrough. 150+ quests in one contiguous zone with fresh reputations is a denser questing block than the original game ever offered between Stranglethorn and the Hinterlands, and the neutral port means both factions can quest there without a long detour. Whether it outpaces the classic zone-hopping route in raw XP per hour is something nobody can measure until launch.

If you would rather skip the trial-and-error of a brand-new zone, PewPewShop offers Forever leveling as a pre-order for launch — the Riverglades 30–45 stretch from EUR 15, or a full 1–60 from EUR 25 — handled by vetted human players with a long zero-ban record, as either coaching or a play-together run. Riding skill and mount help starts from EUR 29 once you hit the level for it.
