Troll-fells

The Ettenmoors north of Rivendell

The moorland to the north and west of Rivendell, in which the River Hoarwell rose. As its name suggests, this region was known to be troll-country, and its landscape was so rocky that riding was made impossible. The Troll-fells' main entry into history was at the time of the overthrow of Angmar. When the Witch-king fled southwards, it was among these fells that he disappeared.
