The Bridge of Nimrodel once spanned the river Nimrodel near its meeting with the Celebrant. It was part of the path from Khazad-dûm into Lothlórien. By the time the Fellowship of the Ring came to the river on 15 January T.A. 3019,[1], the bridge had long broken down.[2] In the absence of a bridge, Legolas led the party down the deep-cloven bank to wade across the soothing waters.[2]
