Nen Hithoel

Nen Hithoel, once referred to as Lake Nen Hithoel,The Chronology of The Lord of the Rings, pg. 52 was a large lake upon the Great River Anduin amid the Emyn Muil, east of Rohan.
The lake was approximately twenty miles long from north to south, and ten miles wide. Upon the lake's northern approach, the Men of Gondor constructed the huge pillars of the Argonath in the reign of Rómendacil II to mark the northern boundary of their realm, although by the time of the War of the Ring that boundary had long since receded. At the southern end of the lake stood three hills. Amon Hen was the location of Seat of Seeing, stood upon the western shore and Amon Lhaw, the Seat of Hearing upon the east. The third hill formed an island in the lake itself, Tol Brandir. None ever set foot upon the islandThe Lord of the Rings, The Fellowship of the Ring, Book Two, Chapter IX: "The Great River" due to the intense currents at the lake's south end by the Falls of Rauros.
A stair built by the Men of Gondor allowed passage from Nen Hithoel down to the river below the Falls.
