The game recommends starting Dire Maul at level 54 and up. It is a 5-player dungeon, so you will want a full group.
Dire Maul is in contested territory, which means neither faction holds it. Dungeons in WoW Forever are open to both factions. You only face a longer trip through hostile land when a dungeon sits in the other faction’s territory, and that is not the case here.
