WoW Classic Leveling Guides and Recommended Quest Zones
Leveling in Classic WoW is very different from Battle for Azeroth, with no dynamically-scaling zones in Kalimdor or Eastern Kingdoms. To help you decided where to level, we put together Classic WoW leveling route guides with zone recommendations!
In these guides, you'll learn about notable rewards, environmental terrain, mob density, and chance of encountering PvP in every zone. We also group each zone by level range and provide recommendations on which are the most optimal or convenient for each race.

Alliance Leveling Guide
and
Horde Leveling Guides
for best routes!
