Fields of Fornost is an area within The North Downs in the western region.
This was once where the capital of Arnor stood, known as Norbury of the Kings, the North Kingdom of Men. Now, all that remains are weathered ruins that reminds travellers of the war that drove away the Witch-king of Angmar, and fields of wild grasses and sparse trees. These barren fields north of the Greenway area embrace the northern end of the North-South Road leading to the city of Fornost; across the western fields the Evendim Gate leads to Evendim and beyond. Recently foul creatures and hardened bands of Orcs and goblins have moved into these fields again, and into Dol Dínen.
The Fields of Fornost is mainly a questing area providing a variety of fell beasts. In the south is Mincham's Camp and in the north Treasure Hunters' Camp, both housing several quest givers. They also provide some basic vendors: healer, provisioner, and supplier.
