The outer valley is divided into eight pieces by terrain, three of which are noteworthy.
- The human village of Shadowgrange and the human rancher community of Lammas. Shadowgrange and Lammas are strange places populated by humans that are fiercely passionate about their lifestyles but also paranoid and fearful. Few other humans of Innistrad ever see these distant places.
- The abandoned Maurer Estate, a favorite haunt of newly sired vampires. Its founder Strefan Maurer, a progenitor of a minor vampiric bloodline, is still said to rule a remote region in the outland valleys.
