World of Warcraft : Classic

Ashenvale is a vast, ancient forest steeped in primal magic and conflict. Nestled between Darkshore, Azshara, and the Barrens, it is the ancestral home of the night elves, who fiercely guard their sacred groves and settlements like Astranaar and the Shrine of Aessina. Towering trees conceal serene lakes and treacherous creatures—furbolgs, satyrs, spiders, and wolves. Though beautiful, the forest is scarred by war. The Horde has carved footholds at Splintertree Post and Zoram'gar Outpost, igniting constant skirmishes. Blackfathom Deeps lurks near the Zoram Strand, where naga stir beneath the waves. From the Southfury River to the Warsong Lumber Camp, Ashenvale is a battleground of nature and blood—wild, spiritual, and perilous.

Ashenvale is a forest full of ancient trees, teeming with life. Though pockets of the forest have become tainted, overall the area is a place of deep magic and spiritual connection with nature. Several lakes are sheltered beneath the forest's boughs. A stretch of beach lines the west edge of the forest, known as the Zoram Strand, where hostile naga dwell. The forest is bordered by mountains to the south, and more forest to the north. The eastern border is the Southfury River.
