Rauros

The Falls of Rauros as seen in The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring

The Falls of Rauros, or simply Rauros, were the great falls of the river Anduin at which the river fell from the Nen Hithoel into the wetland of Nindalf. The hill and island of Tol Brandir stood in the middle of the falls.

History[]

At the breaking of the Fellowship of the Ring, Frodo and Sam paddled a boat from the west bank of the river to the east just above the falls and had to use all their strength to avoid being swept over the falls by the current.[1] Shortly afterward, Boromir's body was placed in another boat by Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli who sent it over the falls, but it apparently survived the fall.[2]

A stair was built below Amon Hen by the Men of Gondor, allowing for passage down to the river below the falls.
