The collective name for Valinor and the island of Tol Eressea, the blessed realm in the uttermost West where the Valar dwell and many Elves have their home. After the destruction of Numenor, the Undying Lands were removed from the physical world, reachable only by the Straight Road across the sea. The Grey Havens on the western coast of Middle-earth are the departure point for Elves sailing West. At the end of The Lord of the Rings, Frodo, Bilbo, and Gandalf depart for the Undying Lands.
