When the world was made there were leftover bits. These shell fragments from previous creation or cosmic crumbs or pocket worlds make up most of the strange lands you can visit. These fragments were occupied by various factions which changed over aeons. These planes were colonised and fought over by early powers and many contain remnants of then. Faerie and Demons occupy the most. Other fragments were linked and made as extensions to the world by adding extra hells and heavens which can only be accessed in order.
Later ages when gods left after creation, trolls mostly a spent force, giant scattered and their control over the cosmos was lost mostly to faerie folk. After an age of evil that kept the gods at bay humans, demihumans, goblinoids and orcs have been the thriving peoples of the age. Mortals have not interacted with these planar fragments of the old order or petty domains of rebel servants of the gods.
Most plane travel is through universal points like using the sea to go to underwater fairyland or a forest fairy ring or a cave at the right time and the right place. At least your first planar trips use these. Each Planeshift wizard spell includes one planar location described in detail. Some of these are tricks spread by imps or cultists. Some have samples of soil from another plane they can use to home in on but once again - who gave these samples to you? ESP on a planar being might help.

The dice roll is some keywords for factional differences. The number rolled here don't represent all these as equally successful - currently, demons and faeries have occupied many such planes while giants have lost ground. You could roll a d3 of these for past occupants and a new arrival on the Recent planar explorers table. This helps you populate a world with inhabitants and ruins.

Arrival
In my game, Planeshift like Teleport requires well-known target location preferably one you have been to or can see. You can research a place like the palace of efreeti princes on the plane of fire in a book and go blind but you never met anyone who did this. You can hear of a reputed gateway from some kind of record or expert. Following their advice use plane shift using extra conditions on this table as prescribed and can gate to a prescribed planar location set by the particular gate. Once you get to another plane you can go back and forth to places you know on the mortal world or other planes you have visited.
