In briefanswer capsule

Aros is a southern river of Doriath. Its fords belong to the road along the northern border of Thingol’s realm. Border wardens informed Aredhel that she might not cross that kingdom toward Celegorm’s country, but must go beyond Melian’s girdle, south or north. The quicker eastern course led from Brithiach through Dimbar, over Esgalduin’s bridge and the Aros fords, into the country beyond Himring hill, where Celegorm and Curufin were believed to live.
