Editor's Notes
Most players who are out of their teens have probably never been to Khegor's End. It's one of those low level places most people never make it to. They do the URT quest series, and then they move on to Hunter's League followed by TK. By that time they're well out of the range of Khegor's.
A lot of Khegor's End's cool factor is hidden in the lore and what's going on there. In that sense it's much like Kalendra's. When you go down there and do the quests, you have to pay particular attention to not only what the dwarves are doing down there, but also what the quest givers and text are telling you. There's a pretty cool story to be pieced together, even if some of it feels missing. It's my guess that a lot more lore is hidden in the local diplomacy.
The quests of Khegor's are pretty standard. Most of them are kill x mobs or collect x item. There are no scripted events or anything. Likewise the rewards are pretty sub-par for the effort. Again here the URT rewards are so much better for a fraction of the effort. Still, at least the named mob drops are decent, and you should leave Khegor's with at least one upgrade.
All in all, you should aim to see Khegor's at least once, if not a couple of times. It's a lot of fun, and if you're really hardcore try clearing the King room. It's a real challenge (when level appropriate).

Lore
Khegor Ironstone dug a mine a long while back. Into the side of the mountain he dug, reaping riches upon riches of great ore. But what was unearthed as Khegor delved deeper into the mine would be his undoing. Khegor's old mine became Khegor's End.
Recently the Oathbreaker Clan have moved into Khegor's old mine, and have begun to build. They've begun to build weapons and also a plot to take over influence in the area around Themnwar's Shield and even Bordinar's Cleft itself!
