Cabed Naeramarth

Cabed Naeramarth, formerly known as Cabed-en-Aras, was a deep gorge near the Forest of Brethil through which the river Taeglin ran.
==History==
Cabed-en-Aras was where Túrin confronted and slew Glaurung in FA 499, when the dragon tried to cross the ravine to attack the Forest of Brethil.
As Glaurung was on the verge of death, and Túrin in a swoon from Glaurung's blood, Niënor found them there, and in his last moments Glaurung captured her in his spell. When Glaurung died, she was released from the spell, and, thinking Túrin dead and regaining all memory of her life, Niënor cast herself down the ravine. After waking and discovering what had occurred, Túrin renamed the gorge Cabed Naeramarth.The Silmarillion, Quenta Silmarillion, Chapter XXI: "Of Túrin Turambar"The Children of Húrin, Ch. XVII: "The Death of Glaurung", pg. 244 In later years, the gorge was thought to be haunted and even the local animals avoided the place.Unfinished Tales of Númenor and Middle-earth, "Narn i Hîn Húrin (The Lay of the Children of Húrin)"
