The shortest of the six
Nine subzones and no awkward ones. Stormsong Valley is the quickest of the six exploration achievements, and it falls out almost entirely on its own if you quest through the zone.
Brennadam sits in the middle and everything radiates from it. East takes you across Mariner's Strand to Sagehold and on to the Shrine of the Storm. West gives you Briarback Kraul, then Deadwash and Millstone Hamlet. North gives you Warfang Hold and Fort Daelin.
Why this one is worth doing early
The six zone exploration achievements together make up Battle for Azeroth Explorer, which is a step towards Pathfinder and flying in Kul Tiras and Zandalar. Doing them before anything else in the expansion pays for itself immediately, because every other achievement out here is faster from the air.
