The Southern Highlands are a location in Act I of Diablo III. They lie directly south of the Northern Highlands, with the Khazra Barricade at the north end of the zone separating the two. In Adventure Mode, the small Highlands Crossing connecting the Southern Highlands to the Caverns of Araneae is considered part of the Highlands itself and its waypoint is labeled accordingly, while in Campaign Mode it is marked as a separate zone.

A small Khazra camp will always be located in the northern area, south the gate. It has a 100% chance of spawning, and will usually have an event in it.^{[clarification needed]}

Khazra Heads Wanted and A Summoner's Journal can be found here. The latter is retrieved by stopping a Dark Cultist (who calls himself the Lord of Goats) on the eastern side of the zone in a short scripted event.

This area has good chances of spawning Treasure Goblins (around the area and in the Cave of the Moon Clan, both levels), and is often used to actively hunt them.
