Amon Dîn

Amon Dîn was the first, and perhaps the oldest, of the seven Beacon-hills of Gondor, located between Drúadan Forest and the Grey Wood.
==History==
It was originally used as a fortified outpost of the city of Minas Tirith keeping watch over north Anórien and Ithilien. Prior to the Siege of Gondor, Amon Dîn was the first beacon to be lit.Unfinished Tales of Númenor and Middle-earth, Part Three: The Third Age, chapter II: "Cirion and Eorl and the Friendship of Gondor and Rohan"
