Ered Mithrin and Withered Heath

Ered Mithrin and Withered Heath is a region found within the land of Rhovanion.

Ered Mithrin (Sindarin for The Grey Mountains) is a large mountain range to the north of Rhovanion. Their western end connected to the Misty Mountains at the site of Mount Gundabad, an ancient Dwarven holy site and later the capital for the Orcs of the north.

The eastern end of the Grey Mountains was split into two chains, and in between lay the Withered Heath, where Dragons bred. After that was a wide hilly plain, beyond which lay the Iron Hills. Erebor, the Lonely Mountain, lay south of the Grey Mountains. [1]
