And i mostly mean weird locations like Mount Hyjal and hard to reach zones like the Emerald Dream.
Wall climbers etc.
Tell me of your exploits. Maybe someone has managed to get to ED?

I would also like in on the secrets, I don't even know what Emerald Dream is or Mount Hyjal tbh haha
Mount Hyjal you had to clip into from Winterspring. Emerald Dream was reached through the Deadmines, more wall clipping.
"May the way of the Hero lead to the Triforce"
"May the Goddess smile upon you."
"Hero", is what they've all been saying. This world, it isn't worth the saving."
Just ran around Mt Hyjal abit.
I guess this is where firelands portal was placed during Cataclysm
Random Onyxia's lair further down the line. Cant enter or open the gates tho.
This is the horde base location from the Hyjal raid in tbc.
And instead of the horde base there's this impressive crater. Havent seen anything like it in any expansion.
Archimonde bones
Blizzard construction co.
Place where you would fight Archimonde in tbc
In the lake theres actually this deep hole, luckily im a priest.
At the bottom of it is just a pile of impassable rocks.
Nice places, overall. Gonna try smth else soon.

If you swim along the northern coast of Tirisfal Glades and keep heading east you'll encounter some mysterious abandoned buildings eventually.
In fact you can keep swimming and if I remember correctly you'll enter the zone Quel'Thalas. It's nothing but swimming along a bland coastline. Eventually you will reach the Hinterlands.
Sure had plenty of time on my hands back then.
While leveling and flying from Zoram Strand to probably Thunder Bluff or something I was disconnected from the world mid-flight and ended up dumped in one of the "fly over eye catch" areas with the Night Elven ruins, a hut with a cauldron, and a lake with a collapsed unfinished tunnel. Put me in an odd spot in the map, I think somewhere in Stonetalon? I had to jump down the mountains to get to the ocean and swim back around.
It was there all the way up until Cataclysm I'm pretty sure - as long as you didn't pass through the instance portal into Ghostlands and like you say, rode the coast from Tirisfal Glades. I did the same journey but as a paladin with Crusader Aura and that DK ability that let you ride on water in the passenger seat of my bike, iirc. Maybe it was plain old Shaman water walking, either ways, still took a while :P
I used to be back in Vanilla, BC and Wrath, but that part of me is gone with the game now. I still remember the fun times of sneaking into Hyjal, or when ICC came out there was the missing piece of the castle that you could fly under, and then you could sneak into VoA with it, haha. Fun times.
This. Emerald Dream was a unique map, you'd have to hack or get GM powers to reach it in Classic, but clever use of game mechanics, wall jumping, and exploiting glitches in the terrain can get you outside the intended limits of the Deadmines map and to a dev playground for a proto-Outland.
Also worth noting, the old Vanilla game has files for Emerald Dream, Outland, Black Morass (with a longer intro portion), and the Caverns of Time, among other things. Classic might have them, too. You can explore these maps with a mapviewer program.

You can reach it with water walking of any sort and a 100% mount. In retail, it's reachable by air again as they removed the invisible walls put up around Old Quel'Thalas in Cataclysm.

For me, the fun is exploring this world and finding everything that was wiped away in the Cataclysm. Locations that have references to WC1-3 and the novels, locations that were largely changed, and the fun little flavor areas like Old Grim Batol.
Be seeing you guys on Bloodsail Buccaneers NA!
