Dimholt

The dark wood beneath the Dwimorberg

From Dunharrow, a double row of standing stones marked an ancient roadway that led away into the east, towards the Dwimorberg and the Paths of the Dead. A traveller taking that road would soon come under the trees of a dark fir-wood. This was the Dimholt, a name that comes from old words literally meaning 'dark wood'. Deep within the wood stood a single great stone to mark the way, and beyond that, among the roots of the Dwimorberg, lay the Dark Door of the Dead.
