Erebor, or the Lonely Mountain (which it translates as from Sindarin), is a mountain in the northeast of Rhovanion. It is the source of the river Running, and a major Dwarven stronghold.
Erebor was first discovered and colonized by the Longbeards some time after Durin I awoke in Mount Gundabad. It was inhabited by a mining colony for thousands of years, and was connected by the Forest Road; Which was built by the Dwarves to connect all of its mining colonies. It runs from the High Pass through Greenwood the Great (Later called Mirkwood) to the river Running that wents all the way up to the Iron Hills, which is east of Erebor.
