To explore Northrend is not as simple as it may look given the fact that it is one of the major and most extensive updates to World of Warcraft since it was made. Players wont have enough time to check everything the new continent has and at the same time keep up with their leveling speeds. An alliance leveling guide would be a great addition to consider.
Leveling in World of Warcraft needs a tremendous amount of time to research and explore. Northrend is not an exception. The land is huge, with two starting areas and fully equipped with thousands and more of new quests.
The first thing in Northrend leveling is to know where to start. There are two starting zones " Borean Tundra and Howling Fjord " and each one has its own positive and negative points to consider. But, of the two, Borean Tundra is by far the better choice for getting started in leveling. It provides a more linear leveling sequence, a faster route between hubs and a lot easier chance of finding what you need. Howling Fjord is a prettier, technically more awe inspiring locale, but it takes more time to get around and is thus harder to level up in as quickly.
While Outland was a series of large quest hubs with dozens of quests to complete at once, most of Northrends quests are done in chains that follow a story line. This makes it easier to find them in order, but it also makes Northrend leveling a bit more grueling. To effectively pull it off, you need to spend a bit of time prepping your character for each zone, reading up on the right paths and knowing which NPCs you should be talking to.
Also unlike Outland, players can now complete daily quests as early as Level 72, which allows you a lot more freedom in your leveling (and guarantees that you never have to grind for the next level). However, you should not stay in the first zones for dailies as they reward less XP and take longer. Go through Northrend up to Icecrown Glacier and if you are still not Level 80, only then start using Dailies for XP.
Given it is full of new content that can be explored in many new exciting ways, leveling in Northrend will take you more effort and time but, at the same time, will give you more pleasure and fun.
