Chillwind Camp during The Journey.

Chillwind Camp is the Alliance encampment in the Western Plaguelands. It is located in the south, at the entrance to the Plaguelands from Chillwind Point in the Alterac Mountains.

History

The small camp, maintained by a small contingent of the Argent Dawn, is the last bastion of safety for Alliance travelers approaching the Western Plaguelands. Only recently established, the Argent Dawn has begun their first assaults against the Scourge in the area. Only having a few troops and specialists, they rely mainly on mercenaries to carry out attacks and strategic guerrilla warfare against the scourge base of Andorhal and the diabolical Plague Cauldrons.

In Patch 2.0.1, a draenei NPC was added to Chillwind Camp offering a minor quest chain to complete. Both quests grant players Exodar reputation.

Many warriors of this camp went to invade Andorhal, believing that they would win with a big strategy and convinced by a great quantity of money. However, all the warriors that invaded were killed in battle.

The ruined house will be completely rebuilt. In addition, Weldon Barov has been moved to Scholomance and appears as a neutral quest giver.

Getting there

• From Southshore take the path north and turn east at the crossroads. When the road crosses a river, turn north following the river on its west bank. Keep following the river into the mountains. At a certain point there is a gap in the mountains. Cut west there to find the path that leads north to Chillwind Camp.

• Sometimes called, or confused with, Chillwind Point.
