If you have FP in Searing Gorge (Thorium Point) you can go from there.
If not - it's the path you mentioned.

No, that's the safest route. You can come from the south but that
involves travelling through more alliance zones (Redridge and
Darkshire) and through higher level zones (Burning Steppes and Searing
Gorge).

There's a quest to the Badlands given by an NPC in the Shimmering Flats
anyway, so that place might be worth visiting. I'll check WoWwiki to see
what level the Badlands mobs are.

I like being able to travel AFK. Having to get on and off boats or
zeppelins at the right time is a bother.

Thanks.

Level 35-45, so it's doable in the zone. Problem is, how do I get there?
Do I have to walk down from Tarren Mill, through Hillsbrad, then the
Wetlands, then Loch Modan? Or is there some easier route that I've
overlooked?

Zep to Grom'gol base camp, then walk up is your other option.

But walking "up" involves a trip through burning steppe and searing gorge
which might be a bit unhealthy at level 30ish...

There is a teleporter in Booty Bay that send you to Gnomeregan. From there,
you cross Dun Morogh, the south part of the Lock Modan and then you are in
badlands.

You have to take a quest in Orgrimmar in order to use the teleporter.

That's an interesting route I'd never considered. With so few doing old
world instances these days, I've yet to do Gnomer on a Horde toon, so I've
only used the teleporter once, and then just teleported right back.

Is this a Horde only thing? I'm unfamiliar with this teleporter, which
sounds like it could be mighty handy.

Yes, Horde only. I heard that at the start of WoW, the gobelin giving the
quest was neutral, and so it was possible for Alliance to go to Orgrimmar
to take the quest, but it was changed.

On the other hand, I'll get to see some neat new zone landscapes. It's
just too bad I don't play any petted characters as Horde. It's much
easier to let the mobs kill my Voidwalker or Hunter's pet, while I run away.

I guess the way forward is to figure out which of my Horde PCs is the
most robust, and that is probably the Warrior (no Horde Paladin either,
otherwise Pursuit of Justice would have helped slightly, plus various
self-heals).

There is always that. We ran from IF to SW on level 1 gnomes going through
there (among other things). I didn't count but we probably died more than a
hundred times on that trip.

A level 30ish character on a mount should probably get through there with a
dozen or so deaths

Aehm, wouldn't it make sense to do it with the character that *needs* the
flight point? Or are you going to get the flight point via the northern
route and just do the southern route for sightseeing effect? In that case
take the highest char you've got and use a mount. Even if that means using a
clothie. At that level difference the armour type is not going to make much
difference, but the aggro radius difference will be noticable.

Yes, it is Horde only.

Without this shortcut, Horde players would have a rough time getting to
Gnomeregan. But Alliance players already have easy access to Gnomeregan,
so they don't need a shortcut.
