And it happened that when Arathorn and Gilraen had been married only one year, Arador was taken by hill-trolls in the Coldfells north of Rivendell and was slain; [âŠ]

–The Lord of the Ring , Appendix A
The Coldfells are a biome located to the east of the Ettenmoors , south of Angmar , west of the Misty Mountains , and north of the Lone-lands . Aragorn's grandfather Arador was slain by a troll here. The Coldfells are very similar to the Ettenmoors, except that they are less mountainous, have denser spruce tree coverage, and have maple trees . At night the land is home to Gundabad orcs , trolls , and Hill-trolls . Troll hoards and ruined DĂșnedain towers spawn here.
Upon entering the Coldfells, the player earns the achievement "The Wild North ".

Structures [ ]
The Coldfells are a barren land, but among the spruce trees and piles of various kinds of brick, a few structures do spawn:
Mobs [ ]
During the day these hills are populated by wolves , elk and bears , besides the usual butterflies and rabbits , but the following mobs also spawn at night:
Gundabad Orc - Orcs from Mount Gundabad in the Misty Mountains allied only to themselves. They use random pieces of armour and equipment from various orc and neutral sets.
Gundabad Orc Archer - Gundabad Orcs with bows and arrows.
Gundabad Warg - Wargs (giant wolves) allied with the Gundabad Orcs. They can be ridden by Gundabad Orcs or archers.
Gundabad Uruk - Powerful Uruk-hai who have left their old homes for the Misty Mountains, and now fight for Gundabad. They wield cleavers, waraxes, and bludgeons.
Gundabad Uruk archers - Gundabad Uruks armed with orc bows.
Trolls - Massive, strong, and unintelligent creatures that wield clubs and turn to stone in the sunlight.
Additionally, with conquest, Hill-trolls , Angmar Orcs , Angmar Wargs , Rangers and Rivendell Warriors can also spawn.
Conquest [ ]
Coldfells can be conquered by Angmar , Gundabad , DĂșnedain of the North and High Elves . The conquest rate is 1.0.
Mining [ ]
Like with many mountain foothill biomes, gemstones are 1.5 times as common underground in the Coldfells as compared to most biomes , making mining here quite profitable.
Vegetation [ ]
The Coldfells are covered with average grass and flower growth. This montane series of fells and hills are forested with the conifers spruce , larch , fir , and pine , along with the broadleaf maple and oak trees. It is considerably more diverse than its north-western counterpart, the Ettenmoors .
