Mordor - Stairs of Cirith Ungol

Running up almost vertically on the Eastern side of Ephel Dúath, these steps might be Orc-free, but are still dangerous

Persuaded by Gollum, the Hobbits muster their strength and plunge even deeper into the darkness.

Mordor - North Ithilien Forest



Like many places close to Mordor, this forest used to be lush and inhabited by Men but it now fades under the cover of the Shadow.

Seemingly cheerful, Gollum leads the Hobbits forward, but in secret he begins to brew a plan.

Eye of Sauron - Black Gate



Escaping the Dead Marshes does not give great relief as they are now faced with this disheartening sight. This impenetrable gate was built by the power of the Ring and is now manned by thousands of Orcs and evil creatures, ready to serve their Dark Lord.

Perched upon a hill, the two Hobbits consider their options and head for the open gate, hoping to pass unseen and unharmed.

Eye of Sauron - Camp in the Marshes



The Lights are not the only threat in this filthy land. Above their heads a great Fell Beast surveys the skies, perhaps sensing the pull of the Ring.

The travelers must keep their whereabouts secret as they inch closer to Mordor.

Eye of Sauron - Dead Marshes



Gollum leads the Hobbits down a hidden and unused path through this accursed land. The fetid pools of water entomb the spirits of soldiers long past. The Lights, as described by Gollum, entrance their victims and trap them underwater.

Mesmerized by one of them, Frodo is submerged and then saved by none other than Gollum.

Eye of Sauron - Emyn Muil



These seemingly impenetrable hills are as confusing as they are vast. Devoid of vegetation or landmarks, they prove to be a barrier for the Hobbit pair who have been wandering in circles for days.

However, there is another lurking in the hills. Sensing that they are not alone, Sam and Frodo trick Gollum into attacking, hoping to capture their strange pursuer.

The Shire - Bucklebury Ferry



This unmanned ferry on the Brandywine River is one of the main crossing points between the Shire and Buckland.

After a close encounter with a cloaked rider, the raft serves as a literal lifeboat for the Hobbits. Huddled, they float through the night, hoping to reach safety before the pursuer crosses Brandywine Bridge.

The Shire - Woody End


As the name might suggest, this region is located on the Eastern edge of Green-Hill and it’s one of the very few forests in the Shire. 


Here, Sam and Frodo witness the last journey of the Wood Elves as they head to the Grey Havens, leaving Middle-Earth, never to return.

The Shire - South Farthing

  

Stretching from Three Farthing Stone in the centre of the Shire all the way down to its southernmost border, this warmer region is renowned for its lush fields and crops.

Frodo and Sam travel cross-country, as advised by Gandalf, in order to reach Bree. Although still in the Shire, this is an important milestone for Sam, being the farthest away from home he’s ever travelled.

The Shire - Bag End

 

This Evil cannot remain in the Shire, Frodo must leave cosy Bag End and travel to Bree.



There, Gandalf will meet him once more, after he has spoken with the head of his order, Saruman.
