=== Borders ===
{{anchor|Isengard}}

Rohan is bordered to the north by the [[Fangorn]] forest, home to the [[Ent]]s (tree-giants){{efn|[[Old English]] ''ent'' meant "giant", as in the phrase ''orþanc enta geweorc'', "cunning work of giants".{{sfn|Shippey|2001|p=88}}}} led by [[Treebeard]], and by the great river Anduin, called Langflood by the Rohirrim. To the northeast are the walls of Emyn Muil. After the War of the Ring, the kingdom is extended northwards over the Limlight to the borders of [[Lothlórien]].<ref name="ReferenceB" group=T>{{harvnb|Peoples|loc="The making of Appendix A"|p=273|ref={{harvid|Tolkien|1996}}}}</ref><ref group=T>{{harvnb|Unfinished Tales|loc="Cirion and Eorl and the Friendship of Gondor and Rohan", (ii) The Ride of Eorl|ref={{harvid|Tolkien|1980}}}}</ref> To the east are the mouths of the River Entwash, and the Mering Stream, which separated Rohan from the Gondorian province of Anórien, known to the Rohirrim as Sunlending. To the south lie the [[White Mountains (Middle-earth)|White Mountains (''Ered Nimrais'')]]. To the west are the rivers Adorn and Isen, where Rohan borders the land of the [[Dunlendings]]. To the northwest, just under the southern end of the [[Misty Mountains]], lies the walled circle of Isengard around the ancient tower of Orthanc; at the time of the War of the Ring, it had been taken over by the evil [[Wizard (Middle-Earth)|wizard]] [[Saruman]]. The area of the western border where the Misty Mountains and the White Mountains drew near to each other is known as the Gap of Rohan.<ref name="ReferenceB" group=T/>
