Best way to get there ?

Seems to be that Mulgore is a dead end and only other ways are north
or south through thousand needles....

If I recall correctly:

Barrens
-> head north to Ashenvale
-> head west, take tunnel in south mountains
-> Stonetalon Mountains
-> Desolace

(done from memory, possibly wrong).

That is probably quicker than Thousand Needles and Ferelas.

Where in the Barrens do I find the path up into the mountain towards
StoneTalon?

Go to the crossroads and then go west:

Then in stonetalon go to "Sun Rock Retreat" if you're hord at the back
of the camp there is a path up into the mountains (South West in camp)
this will take you into the Charred Vale.

If you're alliance head towards Mirkfallon Lake and then cut down to
charred vale.

When you enter Desolace the first time you should have hit level 30.
And at that point you already have a mount. So I always ride through
Sunrock retreat without any worries as the guards cant run fast enough.
And with next patch we will be able to use a mount at level 20...

There's a right path above Sun Rock Retreat - Alliance can use it
safely too. No need to go to the lake.

I've been un-subscribed for a couple of months (as usual), but I believe
one can move from The Barrens and directly to Stonetalon Mountains.

And yes, Mulgore *is* a dead end.

Go south from Astranar thru the tunnel. Very safe if the harpies
don't get you

this is great if your a horde. I did it with my lvl 30 warlock 3 yrs
ago and it was a bitch. I finally sac'd the vw as they came for me
and i just outran them.

Best way for ally to go is thru the tunnel south from astranar or
ashanvale. I really forget the name of that place.

The presumption was that you're already in the Barrens, and from there it's
much faster to go straight west through Stonetalon. You don't have to go
through Sun Rock. Just go through the Charred Vale. You're not saved from
that by taking the Ashenvale tunnel.

But if you didn't start in the Barrens (eg. from taking a boat from Booty
Bay to Ratchet), then the tunnel is indeed faster.

BTW, Astranaar is the main Alliance town in the zone of Ashenvale.

Or use the map in the game. Or is it mapster that's saying where paths
at the edge of the map lead? It's been so long since I ran without

Plus I have a handy LDB plugin called Broker_RecZone which tells me what
zones and instances are appropriate to my level, and gives paths to each
