Lore
Dunharrow was a clifftop overlooking Harrowdale, the valley of the River Snowbourn. Guarded by statues of Púkel-men the path climbs upwards in a series of switch-backs from Underharrow to Dunharrow - the Stair of the Hold.
This path was lined with statues known as the Púkel-men — statues originally carved by the Men of the White Mountains, in the likeness of the Drúedain. After the stair was the "Firienfeld", a large grassy area for the encampment of soldiers and refuge-seekers.[1]
From Dunharrow a natural amphitheater, large carved stones marked the entrance to the Dimholt, which led into the Paths of the Dead.[2]
