UnGoro

Un'Goro Crater is a large, circular volcanic crater located in southern Kalimdor. The interior is a dense, tropical jungle enclosed by high basalt walls, with a network of rivers and lakes forming a central basin. Fire Plume Ridge runs along the crater's southeastern rim, where a continuous belt of lava vents keeps the air hot and the ground unstable.

The region is notable for its biodiversity and its preserved prehistoric ecosystem. Its flora includes giant fungal growths and lush ferns, while its fauna consists of dinosaurs and other ancient vertebrates, often encountered as roaming packs. The volcanic soil and mineral deposits give rise to unusual crystal formations and rare reagents used by alchemists and enchanters in the game.

Historically, Un'Goro is depicted as an isolated sanctuary where natural energies have shaped life in peculiar ways. In lore and quest design, the crater serves as a frontier area for exploration rather than a populated civilization, with explorers and adventurers seeking ancient artifacts and studying the ecological peculiarities of the region. The zone contains several notable sites and point-of-interest locations used for quests and exploration in different game expansions.

Un'Goro remains a distinctive and enduring part of Azeroth's geography, recognized for its lush jungle, volcanic features, and the sense of stepping back into a prehistoric era within the game world.
