Directions

A map of the Realm of Middle Earth.

Directions if coming from the East: Follow the Anduin River until you reach the branch where the Silverlode river feeds into the Anduin. Continue along the Silverloade River until you’ve reached its source, the Mirrormere. Here, you will find the Eastern Gates of Moria.

Directions if coming from the West: Follow the old roads through the ancient fallen Elvish kingdom of Eregion. Eventually, you will reach Durin’s Stone, a large standing stone erected at the start of the road to the Western Gates of Moria. Follow this road until you reach the Doors of Durin, where you will “Speak Friend, and Enter.”
