Riverglades is a new Forever questing region linked with the Burning Steppes, Redridge Mountains, Swamp of Sorrows, and Badlands.[1]
Leveling context
Blizzard describes an approximate mid-30s to mid-40s experience.[2] This is a broad content band. The numeric minimum and maximum remain unset because neither exact boundaries nor an entry requirement are established.

An announced sea route links the Steamwheedle Cartel in Tanaris with Powderfuse Port in Riverglades.[1] New zones and travel collects the other announced connections.
| Planning detail | What this reference supports |
|---|---|
| Sea arrival | Powderfuse Port; exact dock coordinates and sailing time remain unrecorded. |

Maps and landmarks
A map from Wowhead’s Forever datamining report shows Powderfuse Port and the neighboring Badlands, Burning Steppes, and Redridge. Its association with Riverglades is an identification made by comparing those visible labels with Blizzard’s region description; the image has no Riverglades title banner.[3][1]
To document an approach, capture the named departure area, entry point, and arrival hub in the same Forever build. The preview does not establish usable crossings or transport access.
