The Horde town of Tarren Mill offers many quests to players through their twenties. Later, Tarren Mill also serves as the Horde town for questing in Alterac Mountains, though there are considerably fewer quests to be done there.

Alliance quests in Hillsbrad Foothills are slightly higher level than their Horde counterparts, due to the long distance away from the rest of Alliance civilization. All quests come from the town of Southshore.
