In the south of France, approx one hour drive from Nice, and behind Antibes lies a small moutainous area that we (my friends and I) liked to describe as the Moon. Its surface is a perfect representation of Tolkien's description of Mordor.
Rocks everywhere and no sign of life.
I think Tolkien inspired himself of the South of France landscapes to write some of the LOTR passages.
