The Gap of Rohan, once known as Gap of Calenardhon is the opening between the mountain ranges of the Misty Mountains and the White Mountains.
Through the Gap flows the rivers Isen and Adorn, which forms the effective boundary of the region Calenardhon, later Kingdom of Rohan. The ancient Great Road which connects the realms of Gondor and Arnor of old runs through the Gap, crossing the Isen at the Fords of Isen. Access to the Gap is controlled by the fortress of Angrenost, or Isengard.
