The Woods of Oromë were a forested area in southeastern Valinor between the Pastures of Yavanna and the Hyamentir.[1]
History[]
The woods was used by Oromë probably for hunting purposes. It was observed by both Ungoliant and Melkor as they scaled the high-points of the Pelóri on their way to destroy the Two Trees.[2]
