Iach Iaur

The Dwarf-road crosses the Anduin between the Carrock and the Gladden Marshes at the Athrad Iaur. The Old Ford receives no maintenance, and it becomes more dangerous to use each year. Nonetheless, it remains the best crossing between Osgiliath and the northern Vales. A Dwarvish bridge called Nogothiant still crosses the Anduin a half-mile north of the ford, but it is in ill repair and a whole span is now missing.
