TheWoWDBTo get this quest to complete I had to travel along the main road towards the marked quest location. If you take a detour and do the bonus quest and then try to approach it from the undergrowth, it may not complete. Happened to me at first. I went back to the original quest givers thinking I was missing something. As I travelled back to the quest location along the main road, it completed.

You can't fly in, you can't take any shortcuts, you HAVE to walk or ride in on a ground mount, following the road/trail. Damn these glitchy quests.
After you pick up this quest, to complete it you do have to follow the main road. You will notice an event with a Giant Centaur looking creature. If you go off and do the Bonus Quest, which I did because its literally right there. You do have to end up going back up the hill to the quest givers, and than approach the event area for the quest to complete.

Description
Gorgrond is one of the most untamed landscapes in all of Draenor. Only the most skilled of rangari venture this deep into the wilds. It is their camp we are heading for. If you wish to travel ahead, it can be found down this path and to the right. Maraad and I shall follow after you momentarily. We still have some logistics to work out before we leave the landing.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Harvester Has Come
This is what happens when one stands in the path of a genesaur. And where a genesaur walks, the botani follow. I saw one entering our shelter cave along the northern side of the camp. It is commanding the podlings to gather the corpses of our fallen brethren and must be stopped.
