When I get tired of bashing monsters I like to take my druid and investigate out of the way corners of WoW. I'm sure much of this has been found by others, but I thought I'd mention a few of the places I've found.
If you jump into the ocean north of the Scarlet Monastery and head east, you will find a large tower and a dock. These are Night Elf style buildings. There are no NPC's. The world map shows that you are in the middle of the land north of the Eastern Plaguelands, but it lies!
If you continue along the coast (now heading south along the Eastern Plaguelands) there is a spot where you can get into the mountains and onto an unfinished plateau. The ground is completely flat over a very large area. It's possible to climb out of this area and into the Eastern Plaguelands. I died horribly doing this. :) There is also a spot with 3 square holes that appear to drop forever. I had to try jumping in. As expected I died; but my spirit showed up at Sentinel Hill. I have a funny screenshot showing me in Westfall and my corpse up near the Eastern Plaguelands. I'm sorry, but I'm just not computer literate enough to figure out how to post screenshots.
If you continue south you come to a small farm tucked along the coast, on the eastern edge of the Arathi Highlands. Further south, along the east cost of the Wetlands there is another spot where you can climb onto an unfinished plateau. It's possible to get into the Wetlands from this area, but I found a large region where I couldn't go because of invisible walls--- nothing appears in front of you - but it's impossible to get past them.
The only other out of the way spot I've found is along the western coast north of Westfall, a little dock and house at a spot called Newman's Landing. It's rather amusing to see the Mage Quarter of Stormwind show up on the minimap as you swim north.
Any other explorers out there? What have you found?
