The pent waters spread out into a long oval lake, pale Nen Hithoel, fenced by steep grey hills whose sides were clad with trees, but their heads were bare, cold-gleaming in the sunlight. At the far southern end rose three peaks. The midmost stood somewhat forward from the others and sundered from them, an island in the waters, about which the flowing River flung pale shimmering arms.
- The Fellowship of the Ring (Book 2), Chapter 9
Nen Hithoel is a large lake sitting among the hills of the Emyn Muil. The Argonath mark its northern approach as the Anduin pools into the lake. The water exits the lake on its southern end at the Falls of Rauros.
