Airport; Human Factors; Procedure
It was the first flight of the morning and also the first flight of the trip for me. I just met the crew; me and the FO [First Officer] never flew with each other as well as being new. Also; we never had been to this airport before. Everything was normal as far as boarding; we started both engines at the gate because the end of the runway was very close to the ramp. The FO called for taxi and ATC says taxi to Runway 27. While taxing I was telling the FO about the hydraulic procedure and asking him when he turned the hydraulic switches from on to auto. During that brief conversation I passed [Taxiway] A5 and was told by ATC to stop and do a 180 back to [Taxiway] A5. (Which is the beginning of the runway) and given the Tower number. I called them when we landed in ZZZ1 and he said it was common (it happens about once a week) and they will soon be posting that area as a hotspot. The rest of the flight was normal ops.Causal factors: It was the first flight of the morning and it always seems rushed; combined with the new weight and balance and a new crew; it felt like I was trying to catch up. Also; it was a new unfamiliar airport with the runway about 100 yards away; combined with a somewhat vague restricted area on the other side of the field. I believe this was the subtle chain of events along with a brief disruption in my situational awareness that was the direct cause.I believe I should have looked a lot closer (zoomed in) at the airport diagram; and should have briefed the FO exactly where the runway entrance was at [Taxiway] A5 and where the restricted area boundaries were. Also; as I mentioned before; and ATC also told me; they need to revise this chart and put that area as a hotspot because it's so easy to pass if you're not completely focused. Also; I should have waited to ask the FO about the hydraulic procedure till later. Also; as far as the chart goes; not only should this area be a hotspot but it should be magnified in the corner of the chart as well as having a description on the 10-7 pages that covers both sides of the airport where the boundary is.
