West Beleriand covers the lands of Beleriand to the west of the River Sirion; they were for the most part under the lordship of Finrod Felagund in Nargothrond, and Círdan the Shipwright in the Falas.
Geography
West Beleriand was the region of Beleriand facing Belegaer to the west with the coast of Falas and the havens of Brothombar and Eglarest and the seaward tower of Barad Nimras. To the north the Ered Wethrin separated Hithlum and Nevrast from the rest of Beleriand.
Rivers included Brithon and Nenning and the tributaries to Sirion, Narog (with Ginglith and Ringwil) and Teiglin (with Malduin and other minor rivers). The Ravines of Teiglin surrounded the Forest of Brethil.
Siding Sirion was the forested stripe of Nivrim, separated from the rest of Doriath by Sirion. Between Narog and Sirion lay Talath Tarnen, a part of the Realm of Nargothrond with the hill of Amon Rûdh.
To the far south, the land of Arvernien with the forest of Nimbrethil formed the Bay of Balar, ending to the Cape Balar.
