It is a strange road, and folk are glad to reach their journey’s end, whether the time is long or short. But I know how long it would take me on my own feet, with fair weather and no ill fortune: twelve days from here to the Ford of Bruinen, where the Road crosses the Loudwater that runs out of Rivendell.
- The Fellowship of the Ring (Book 1), Chapter 11
The Ford of Bruinen is the crossing of the river Bruinen leading toward the path to Rivendell. Elrond, the lord of Rivendell, holds power over its waters.
