Valandil (Second Age 3430 – Third Age 249, aged 260 years) was the third King of Arnor, ruling for 239 years, from Third Age 10 until his death. He was the youngest of the four sons of High King Isildur. Valandil was only a child at the time of the War of the Last Alliance, and so remained in Rivendell when his father and brothers went south to battle Sauron.
