North Stair

Origins
The North Stair was a staircase situated next to the Falls of Rauros, leading to Rauros-foot, built in the days of the great kings of men. It was used by people going down the Anduin in boats, which could not go over the Falls. The Fellowship planned on using the North Stair but was attacked by Orcs and its members split. "Do you not know, Boromir, or do you chose to forget the North Stair, and the high seat upon Amon Hen, that were made in the days of the great kings?""Aragorn to Boromir in The Fellowship of the Ring"
