Great image but it's not the Eyrie. It's the Vale of Arryn, or really it's probably the High Road on the way to the Vale of Arryn. I'd have to rewatch the episode.
The chapters concerning the Vale and the Eyrie in A Game of Thrones and A Feast for Crows are some of Martin’s best descriptive writing. Reading the parts where Catelyn rides up to the Eyrie really fill you with foreboding and puts you there on the ascent to Sky, such amazing language. And Sansa’s time there as Alayne really makes you feel like Winter is coming!! Also Mya Stone is one of my favorite badass characters!!

The Eyrie specifically refers to the Arryn's "castle" shown here https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/gameofthrones/images/5/59/The_Eyrie.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20110615190250
