Middle Earth Info on Dunharrow:

Dunharrow
Dunharrow was a fortress and refuge above Harrowdale, built in the Accursed Years by an unknown race. Dunharrow was used by Gondor and later by Rohan; it was one of the chief refuges of the latter country.
Dunharrow was easily defended, since it was reached by a switchback path that went up a steep cliff; each level was overlooked by the ones above.

Dunharrow
Dunharrow is a modernized form of the translated Rohirric "Dúnharg." "Dunharrow" referred to the area generally, while "the Hold of Dunharrow" referred specifically to the refuge. At the time of the War of the Ring, Dunland, though a fair, fertile land, was sparsely inhabited.
