Information About

Ered Wethrin




In the south, it was an east-west range that divided Dor-Lomin and Mithrim to the north from Beleriand to the south, then in the east it curved around to the northwest, forming the boundary of Hithlum . A line of hills to the southwest formed the southern boundary of Nevrast , while the Mountains of Mithrim were a northwesterly spur that separated Dor-Lomin from Mithrim.

Several rivers arose in the Ered Wethrin, including Narog , Teiglin , and Sirion . The easternmost point of the Ered Wethrin reached nearly to the Echoriath , forming a steep-sided valley through which the upper Sirion ran.

The Ered Wethrin disappeared beneath the waves at the end of the First Age, when the Valar changed the shape of Middle-Earth.
