| [11] On the Doorstep The Company finally arrive at the Lonely Mountain. [Take a look at the Lonely Mountain] After a lot of searching, Fili, Kili and Bilbo found the secret door.
When a beam of light from the setting sun showed where the keyhole was, Thorin used his key to open the door.
They all pushed and the door swung open. Inside was a pitch black tunnel leading down, into the mountain.
