For generations the tribal furbolgs have worshipped a colossal prehistoric bear that roams the surrounding wilderness.

Is this the new Fel Reaver?

Commento di 170695

Does anyone know what the Alliance and Horde towns are here? My guess is it's either Venture Bay or Westfall Brigade Encampment for Alliance and Voldrune or Silverbrook (or maybe there are two towns per zone like BC) does anyone know what the towns are?

And BTW whats the deal with the Westfall Brigade in Northrend??

Commento di Oxford

lol this area looks like Canada or Finland or somthing :D

This place is absolutely beautiful! One of the Blizzard's best works so far.

Commento di Smorfty

This seems to be a level 72+ zone.

Commento di 201062

This is one of Blizzard's best creations in the expansion. Finally we get more than 1 new Nagrand.

Commento di 119097

If only Bob Ross was still alive. He'd have lots of fun in this zone.

Commento di 162023

so is this going to be the new halaa?
if so, where is it

Commento di Mumpley

Venture Bay and other posts along the main river are one of the lesser PvP areas of Northrend. Except on a more wider scale with more daily PvP quests,as in getting keys to a shredder via quest,riding down to Venture Bay on a log then take advantage of the new siege system and wreak havoc on a shredder. Blizz did great with this zone overall.

Commento di Lordsoze44

There is dialy pvp quest for both Horde and Alliance to take over Venture Bay

Arugal boss from Shadowfang Keep also back and appear at Bloodmoon Isle with his Worgan,same as Harrison Jones(appear in Zul'aman at first time) that reference to Indiana Jones also got quest here to rescue him.

Nymh, the first to level 80 has said that he grinded in Grizzly Hills, in Drakil'Jin Ruins for 26 hours in order to reach 80. He is said to have had an un-grouped pocket healer (Disc Priest) and an un-grouped mage for the last 10% of the grind. Nymh is a female warlock, (who is French I might add), and I just called her a he, so my bad.
Here's an article on her, or maybe its actually a him, idk.

Seems like the designers spent some time in Sequoia National Park before creating zones like this one. Absolutely stunning. Funny when a video game is so lovely it makes me want to go for a RL hike.

Commento di Chocopie

This zone and Sholazar Basin require the fewest quests completed in order to get the achievement for the quests done in that zone, compared to any other zone.

Commento di 36214

Fishing in Grizzly Hills requires at least 380 Fishing, 475 to avoid losing catches.

Commento di Smaragd

To overtake Venture Bay is quite similar to how Nagrand's Halaa works.

None of the guards regain health as you attack them and there's a flag to capture the area at the lighthouse if you hold it long enough. The guards are fairly easy to take down, but they are elites. The fact that they don't heal up helps. General Gorlok or Commander Howser will offer an exclusive daily to the faction in control of the area.

Commento di 72744

Grizzly Hills will offer the observant player a multitude of blasts from the past, including Harkor, Budd Nedrek, Samir, and Harrison Jones of Zul'Aman, Shadowfang Keep's Arugal, and Gryan Stoutmantle and the Westfall militia...along with the baddest horse this side of the universe has ever known: Old Blanchy.

Commento di 33153

The world first 80 said that he aoe grinded mobs in an area called Drakil'ji ruins.

30 second repop and neutral mobs to make it safer.

Commento di Teritha

Most of the music I've heard from this zone is just beautiful, it goes very well with the scenery :)
I suggest turning the music to full and ctrl+s to hear this music best :D

Commento di SeanDamnit

Feels to me like the blizz developers in Irvine took a trip down the freeway to Disney's California Adventure to get inspiration for the look, feel, and music of the zone.

Very beautiful zone though

Commento di 170360

can a 72 come here ?

Commento di 179812

You could say its based on Disneyland, or you could say its based off what that part of disneyland is based on.

When I stepped into Amberpine lodge I immediately thought of some of the lodges I hiked to in Northern New Mexico. It really looks like the North American frontier.

A lot of Northrend zones look like north american zones. The dragonblight forest, for example, reminded me of New England deciduous forests in the winter (my backyard basically haha). Its a nice, realistic break from your basic fantasy biomes.

Commento di 237839

It does kinda look like Disney's California Adventure, I mean the logging camps are just like it. Blizzard is doing a fantastic job!

Commento di 272036

Is it just me or if we look closely on the names of the alliance NPCs eg 'sergei' it somehow makes me think its Grizzly hills is like Sibiria in Russia haha

Alliance Flight Master Paths:

Commento di saiex

The weather in this zone is unbearable.

Commento di Treston323

I find it very soothing to level in this zone. Mainly because of the music here.

Commento di 128588

Arugal and Gryan Stoutmantle in the same zone make me happy.

Commento di Markner

The music in this zone is one of Blizzards best work ever!

Commento di 64664

What quests should I pick up from other zones that tells me to go questing in Grizzly Hills?

From Dragonblight's Westfall Keep they send you to the Amberpine Lodge and a few questhubs in the area.

For the achievement: When you're send from DB and did 'all' the quests you've seen and are not progressing after you're send to the far eastern camp... Check Silverbrook again, there should be a couple of quests there as well. I missed it on the first run. Flew around the camp when I was send there but didn't find anything that helped me much further.
After all my previous quests were done I went to Silverbrook again and saw a few questgivers that helps me further into the Grizzly Hills.

Commento di 276555

I'm in love with the violin piece that plays around the middle areas of the map... extremely romantic. Makes me feel like I should be crying while watching the ending of a Disney movie or something.

Definitely the best place to bring your special someone for that perfect e-date. <3

Commento di Longearshunter

This is, in my opinion, the easiest area to level in Northrend.

Commento di 279936

One of the cooler Northrend places for me

Commento di 125159

There is an easter egg about Bloodmoon Isle. On the island there are werewolves, just like in The Elder Scrolls: Bloodmoon ^_^ .

Commento di Dzrtfox

Yes, this is by far Blizzard's best work. I came here to do my dailies one night and I just made my character lay down and look up at the stars while I listened to the music. Very beautiful and serene.

Commento di 257415

What I want to know is the cause for the almost "stealthlike" sound that I hear every so often. If you keep your sound up and your music down you can hear what sounds like a rogue stealthing or when you slightly detect a stealthed rogue. I suppose sometimes it also sounds like a growl. I can't think of any other way to describe it. Does anybody else have any idea?

Commento di 113855

I thought this zone was rather nice until I got tricked into another poop quest. Only this time instead of collecting poop or digging through poop... you EAT the accursed stuff. Freaking gross!

If it wasn't for Drakuru, I'd probably give this zone a pass.

Commento di 327056

Also try this outhouse at Amberpine Lodge! Its FUN! xD

Just click the outhouse near the flight path. (note: Its fun for ppl who like that kinda humor) ^^

Commento di 253196

This region resembles how I've always pictured the Shire from the Lord of the Rings books. Large forests, rivers, hills, lakes, etc.

Commento di 179524

guys can any1 put the flight paths for horde

can only see it for allience

rate down after sm1 puts it.

Commento di Phelia

The Alliance quest leading into the zone is The Hills Have Us given by Gryphon Commander Urik at Wintergarde Keep in Dragonblight.
Requires level 73.

Commento di Rhelan

Of course, this is the MOST beautiful zone in the game.
Ever.
BUT.
I have to pose one question, with the thought that some others may agree;
WHY,
OH WHY! BLIZZARD!
Did you bonk some WORGEN into the best zone in the game!

Commento di Carnagovich

This location reminds me of old russian tales, with tzar's sons, "huts on chicken legs", untrodden forests, wild bears and wolves. When I'm questing here I feel like being in 16th century in Russia. Everything the same: nature, buildings, even music. Blizzard's examined Slavonic culture before making this zone.
Great work!

Commento di ElentilSDS

The guys above are absolutely right.. The music for this zone is magnificent. Especially the tune around Thor Modan, to the north (most of times,that is).Just makes you dream of real adventures. Sigh, I wish some things were for real.

Commento di Ag3nt007

This is one of my favorite places, is a very nice area to take screen shots. Also there are couple of daily's here so you will be visiting this place more often.

Commento di 357217

This is one of several zones that have the Aurora Borealis effect. Just look up at the sky in the night time and you'll see a very realistic display of the northern lights. Just another addition to the already breathtaking scenery.

Commento di 202790

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm wondering if this is an easter egg , lol. Another comment, the entire continent of Northrend is like a representation of our planet Earth's arctic land itself. Just an extra thought :) And the music hear is peaceful, but the music I've heard in Storm Peaks seems decent also. If you stay long enough in SP, you will hear a tune that's notes go up and down when you're at Frost Hold or somewhere else. It can come in a very similar variation too.

Commento di 156138

I have been playing Grizzly hills now for a good 3-4 hours all in, maybe longer now. I know lots of quests in the game are based around a place in what ever zone your in and you have to pick up a quest, do something in that place, take it back, do something else in that place, take it back etc ... but this place seems to be the worse for this. I really hate that. Good for money looting and XP I guess because the 15+ iron drawfs you have to kill every time to get there.

Commento di 388669

So i've got nine quests left to do in Grizzly Hills. I cannot find anymore anywhere. Anyone know if there are some mobs that drop quests and where i can find them?

Commento di themrchook

Blue Sky Logging Grounds is possibly a reference to the band 'Midnight Oil' and their song 'Blue Sky Mine'. They're all dailies here, so if you work all day at the Blue Sky Logging Grounds, there'll be gold in your pocket tonight.

Commento di 245849

To the people who are wondering about that mysterious growling consider this- GRIZZLY Hills is the home of the bear-people or furbolgs. And maybe its the 300 ton super-undead-former-demigod bear Ursoc the Mighty in the northeast. he was resurrected by the furbolgs using the powers of the world -tree Vordrassil after his defeat by the Burning Legion. But a mysterious corruption infected Ursoc. That source was Yogg-Saron, the Beast of a Thousand Maws, Old God imprisoned by the Titans for eternity.

Commento di Bethink

For Horde players, the quest that sends you into this zone is To Conquest Hold, But Be Careful.

Commento di 434395

Agreed, WoW has always been a varied world, with many beautiful landscapes, but i've never encountered such a stirring piece of ambient music until Grizzly Hills. Specifically at Grizzlemaw and the fallen Vordrassil parts. I haven't heard such wonderful music during a video game since Braid, and before that, certain Nobuo Uematsu pieces.

If you have the soundtrack, it's titled "Totems of the Grizzlemaw"

Commento di matoh

the Alliance town, Amberpine Lodge, in this zone is very beautiful, located on a hill with view to foggy forest scenery , roaming deers, a river, and a waterfall right on its side,,,

it's look like a holiday retreat for me, definitely the best spot in Northrend

my mage has her Hearthstone here

Commento di 495283

the scenery is
great also, it reminds me of BC (Canadian province for those who didnt know)
(by nitsud230)
yeah thats EXACTLY what i thought when i first saw it and bc is my home province.Grizzly hills is definetly one of my favorite zones from the game :)

Commento di 557721

where do i go after i do the quests in amberpine lodge?

Commento di 273749

Damn... I haven't played my violin in years, but I have a huge urge to learn to play this zone's music. This zone reminds me of the Adirondacks.

Commento di 122122

At 71.1, 41.4, the water miraculously raises a yard or so in a pyramid-like fashion. Looks like Blizz forgot to smooth it out.

best.zone.ever. Even though I'm now 85 I still visit this awesome place to hear its music and chill a bit, looking at the the marvellous scenery. So peaceful and serene.

Commento di dgbb10

I love this place because it is beautiful has wonderful music and reminds me of camping in Northern Minnesota...

Commento di 828333

This is hands-down my favorite zone in WoW. I love the music and the views are breathtaking. If player housing ever happens, I demand my lodge to be in Grizzly hills.

Commento di Aedwynn

I absolutely adore this zone, It kinda makes me feel like I'm in north-western Canada or Alaska.
Whenever I've got nothing to do but idle-ing and waiting for the dungeon queue to pop up I just hang around in this zone.

Commento di Crusader411

There doesn't seem to be much room in Venture Bay for those ships to move around...

Commento di Barringa

When I saw the beauty of this zone I decided I wouldn't fly, ever, during my questing there. Usually I'm speeding over zones at 280% without stopping to get from quest to quest, but in this zone me and my deathcharger never left the ground but for jumping. I also had my headphones on whenever I was in the zone so I could hear the music without any ambient sound from my end getting in the way.
