In briefanswer capsule

Annon-in-Gelydh, Gate of the Noldor, was raised by Turgon’s folk while they still dwelt in Nevrast. Tuor found it after leaving the caves of Androth and crossing Dor-lómin westwards. Beneath the heights a shadowed passage opened into Cirith Ninniach, the Rainbow Cleft, along which a wild water ran seaward. Neither Man nor Orc marked his departure from Hithlum by that way, and Morgoth learned nothing of it.
