From the rolling landscape of The Shire over the rocky Weather Hills to the snow-capped peaks of the Misty Mountains, from the extensive forests of Fangorn and Lorien via the mighty river Anduin down the whooshing Rauros falls into the Dead Marshes, from the fertile southern shore of Gondor over the White Mountains into the volcanic plateau of Gorgoroth in Mordor: J.R.R. Tolkien´s epic trilogy “The Lord of the Rings” leads us into the geographically diversified, fictional world of Middle-earth.
We will take you on a trip through Middle-earth and accompany the Fellowship of the Ring anew from a completely different perspective: the perspective of a geologist.
‘Wood and water, stock and stone I can master, but there's geology to manage here. Read this book!’
Treebeard
‘You shall not pass this book!’
Gandalf
‘It came to me, my own, my love... my... Preciousssss’
Gollum
