Rauros

The great waterfall of Rauros blocked the Anduin 120 miles upstream from Osgiliath. Rauros was 160 feet high and its roar could be heard for ten leagues in any direction. Portage was possible on the right bank at a winding staircase built by the Kings of Gondor. A small garrison helped to keep the portage safe and assisted in heavy labor.
