Yes, Northrend is the setting for Wrath of The Lich King (the latest expansion).

Northrend has a similar size compared to the previous setting in The Burning Crusade. There are 10 zones being highlighted in Northrend with one zone combined with Borean Tundra. A few of these zones are much bigger than the others as well as the zones in The Burning Crusade.

The story begins here.

The zones in Northrend:

  • Howling Fjord (68 – 72)   : this is where you will probably start off
  • Borean Tundra (68 – 72)   : this is also probably where you will start off
  • Dragonblight (71 – 74)
  • Grizzly Hills (73 – 75)
  • Zul’Drak (74 – 77)
  • Sholazar Basin (76 – 78)
  • The Storm Peaks (76 – 80)
  • Crystalsong Forest (77 – 80)
  • Icecrown (77 – 80)
  • Wintergrasp (Outdoor PvP)
  • Coldarra (Shares the same map as Borean Tundra, but is marked with the larger font designating it as a separate region).

The dungeons available are:

  • Utgarde Keep
  • Azjol-Nerub
  • Ahn’kahet
  • Ulduar
  • Naxxramas II
  • The Nexus
  • Icecrown Citadel
  • Drak’Tharon Keep
  • Chamber of Aspects
  • The Violet Hold

Now, there are many native species in Northrend. Among those that you need to pay attention would be Northrend giants, Storm giants, Mammoths, Walruses and others.
