One of the battles described in “The Two Towers” is the Battle of Isengard, also, known as the Last March of the Ents. It is led by the eldest Ent, Treebeard and accompanied by Meriadoc Brandybuck and Peregrin Took.
The defenders of Isengard were Orcs and Men led by Saruman. The attackers surrounded Isengard, destroyed its gates, crumbled its walls and broke the dam, which flooded Isengard and the pits that Saruman used to create his war machines.
Several Ents were scorched and burned and the entire force of Orcs and Men that defended Isengard were destroyed.
Saruman was trapped in the tower of Orthanc and Treebeard becomes his guardian.
At the given coordinates you will find evidence of the great battle that happened years ago. Saruman has gone long ago and unfortunately the Ents are acting more treeish than ever. But you will be able to find the crumbling tower of the once great Orthanc under the shade of a treeish Ent.
Because of the tall trees the coordinates might be a bit off.
No pen inside.
Warning: There are dogs at the beginning of the trail, but they are harmless.
