Araman

Araman is the narrow northern coastlands of Aman, north of Valinor, that lay outside the mountain-fence of the Pelóri. It was deserted, mountainous and frozen because of its neighbouring with Helcaraxe which joined it with Beleriand, and this was the way Melkor, and later the Noldor took after their Exile. It may of consisted of tundra, but was dark in the age of the Two Trees so might well have been totally desolate.
