Foot Travel Between Barrens Zones

Is it possible to travel, by foot, directly between the Northern and
Southern Barrens anymore? I have not found a road across and even jumped
down to a ledge, but did not find a path up again. I ended up hearthing
out. Maybe they do not want you going direct between the two since there is
a big difference in mob levels now? I guess flying in the old world will
solve this problem when I can raise the gold to purchase it.

If you follow the coast south from ratched you can cross the chasm where it
meets the sea. Of course this is easier as alliance, as the keep there is
not so fond of horde characters :-)

But if it can be done on horse, it should be feasible on foot.

Not sure about any other places where this is possible.

We went exploring this area with a group of 5 level 80's as we were
working our way down to see thousand needles, so I wasn't paying
attention to mob levels.

However, we rode the whole length and there is no bridge across. There
is a way to squeeze around at the northern end, and if you go south, you
have to go through some mobs, then we were able to get up into an
alliance town there to open a flight point and travel on the other side...

Or, you head toward Stonetalon from N Barrens, take the high road (on
the left), and follow it E-SE and it winds down into Southern
Barrens. This is the path that horde questing follows to lead toons
into Southern Barrens, so not as feasible for low level Alliance,
though 80's should have no issue (but may flag).

You can go all the way to the coast and cross. Other than that, no.

There's a really long Zeppelin ride from Orgrimmar to Thunder
Bluff that gets you accross without any trouble.

You can cross on either end. Either at the coast, or at the Stonetalon
Mountains entrance.

I rode down to the shore and passed there.

Strictly speaking it flies around the rift. But walking out through
Mulgore does indeed place you on the other side.
