So you found the tree with the opening. Good. After this chances is coordinates go crazy. But as people written, go inside the Sleeper's Barrow. and follow the path to the first intersection. Here you head right. You will cross a small stony bridge and enter the Den where [npc=91223] lies.
Hope this description get you past the nasty youtube videos that I don't think is well placed here.
The Archdruid's deep, shallow breaths rumble across the chamber.
She awakens and stands, her tall,yet short form towering over you.
The Archdruid yawns mightily, showing no sign of tiredness after her hibernation.
"Why have you awakened me?" she whispers, the shout echoing down the corridor.

What to do
Description
Now, we must focus our efforts on waking Archdruid Steelclaw. She and our druid brethren slumber in the barrow dens to the south. With the furbolgs quelled, we can pass safely to the entrance. Go and awaken the Archdruid. I pray to Elune that we are not too late.

Something, someone, intended us to never awaken. I sense their presence is still here in the barrow. <Koda takes a moment to stand.> My body is weak from deep slumber. If you would aid us, clear our barrow of any enemies.
